Re: when browning ground beef

[ Edited ]

@Hoovermom @Kachina624 @dex @shortbreadlover Baking soda is correct.  There is also a Chinese technique for velveting chicken and other meat that uses cornstarch and egg whites.

 

The baking soda technique is a simpler, quicker one.  I've used both but most often the baking soda one is my preference.

 

Hope this clarification is helpful.  Happy weekend cooking everyone.
