Also what kind of oil

Serial Griller · June 2012

I will try to help.But first you are a candidate for the books:The Breath of A Wok.& The Foods Of Vietnam.

You may be able to check them out at the library.But are good to own.

I would heat the wok until a drop of water vaporizes immediately add 1 tbls peanut or grapeseed oil.do some onions and garlic and ginger for about a minute,Add the bamboo shoots baby corn and chesnuts and cook about 2 more minutes.Remove to a bowl. Add 1 tbls peanut, or grapeseed oil add shrooms,bell pepper, and broccoli. Stir fry for about 2 minutes.Add the shrimp and ingredients in the bowl and stirfry until shrimp are cooked about 1-2 minutes .I usually work from a recipe.It helps to have all your ingredients ready and also make up a cheat sheet that lists the order the food goes in and for how long.

Never add too much meat of vegies at one time.otherwise you will lower the wok temp and you will be steaming or sauteing in stead of stirfrying.Hope this gets you in the ball park.Stir fried rice is a good one to try.But check out those books.Very good!

Not being snarky, bu is your wok clean and seasoned?

cul-de-sac-er · June 2012

Thanks bud, we will give it a shot.

Serial Griller · June 2012

Good Point... If not, you need to clean it and season it before cooking.I just took that for granted.

If you want info on how to do that go to.www.wokshop.com and great store for accessories

Doc_Eggerton · June 2012

It should look something like this.

cul-de-sac-er · June 2012

We are seasoning it now. And we like snarky. Nice wok doc.

Montreal ok to use as a rub?

lousubcap · June 2012

Montreal okay only if you live north of the border :)>- And there are many who reside here that do, so you may just be able to pull it off:) But Quebec vs the remainder-no clue.

paqman · June 2012

Montreal is good but I suggest to add it after the high temp sear - burnt pepper = no good

Doc_Eggerton · June 2012

I use Montreal steak and chicken rubs.

Howdy, Stranger!
