Ever had stir fry from a really good Chinese restaurant and been amazed at the silky texture of the meat? This texture is achieved by using a technique called velveting: coating the meat in a mix of cornstarch, egg whites, and seasonings before frying. The coating forms a crust that seals in moisture and protects the meat from the high heat of the wok.
Mmm...tasty!
