No Stir-Fry For You!

Bob's characterization of stir-fry as a cooking method for kids who can't cook is, I must admit, terribly offensive. Reading it, I began to feel nauseous and had to leave the room for fear of fainting. Having calmed down and regained my grip on consciousness, I feel obligated to defend stir-frying.

Stir-fry is a damn tough cooking form to master, though one with few entry barriers for beginners. That, in fact, is part of its great appeal. Most people can use it to make something taste fine, but the well-trained can emerge with transcendent creation. Now, I'm something of a badass with a wok, so I might be biased. But Bob should really be more careful about slandering stir-fry's good name, lest he incur the wrath of WOK MAN.

Update: Added the end of the post. Sorry bout that.

A coupla weeks ago, the Times had an article about stir-fry, and how hard it is to get it right, at least to the in-the-know Chinese palate. The focus was on getting the right wok, especially the concept of 'wok hay'.

Stir-Fry, truly the Othello of the culinary world.

While bad-ass stir-frying admittedly requires a deft touch, true culinary wok artists know it's really all about the sauce.

Is it my imagination, or did you cut off mid thought Ezra? I'm waiting to see if you were threating to open up a wok of whoop ass :-)

It's those 80-hour workweeks at the stir-fry station...
