A quick soak in alkaline solution made with baking soda is a common Chinese culinary technique called “velveting”. The alkaline modifies the protein structure of the meat to boost juiciness, tenderness, and optimize browning. Prep the vegetables while the beef marinates and you’ll have this restaurant favourite on the table in no time. Recipe adapted from the original developed by Christina Chow.
