Chinese takeout food recipies?

[BD2003]

Alright, I know Im not the only one that noticed that every single chinese takeout has pretty much the same menu...so Im assuming the recipies are basically the same?

Anywhere on the net to get these exact recipies? I want to make general tsos and chicken lo mein.

Well Ive made it before using online recipies, but it never even comes close to as good as the ones you get from the takeout.

I assume you don't make it with MSG?

most chinese restaurants cook their food in woks with an industrial gas stove. One that gets MUCH hotter than your home stove. You'll never be able to reproduce chinese take out if you don't have one.

My friend has a resturant and he even sets aside some extra msg for his food. :Q

MSG = headaches / migraines = :evil:

You can also tell the food contained msg if you become really thirsty after eating it.

general tso chicken = rat meat.

if you don't use rat meat, your food will never taste like chinese take out.
