Tips
Alternative for Kikkoman seasoning for sushi rice: Other sushi vinegar or rice vinegar with some sugar and salt.
Alternatives for Kikkoman naturally brewed soy sauce: Kikkoman naturally brewed less salt soy sauce, Tamari gluten-free soy sauce and Organic soy sauce.
Use vegetable oil or soy bean oil to fry with. Never use sesame oil for frying.
A high temperature heat is important for wok cooking. But be careful when the oil is hot - adding ingredients that are damp can flame up or spit.
Non-stick, metal sheet, cast iron woks are slightly different in terms of heat conduction, suitability for electric, gas and induction hobs and cleaning care. Instead of a wok, a frying pan can be used as long as you cook with high temperature and stir fry according to the steps.
Never overload to the wok. For cooking big portions, cook in batches for the best results.
Gently stir and turn the ingredients in the wok so not to break them up.
Finish by seasoning with soy sauce and sesame oil for perfect glaze, aroma and flavour.
