not a chink but I am going to comment

I am pleased to see correct looking dried chilis in there. But it looks too wet. Generally your chink dishes look too saucy to be authentic. This looks more how it should: https://thewoksoflife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/kung-pao-chicken-14.jpg

And your green onions look wilted and sad. Consider dry searing them until they are almost a little blackened early on, and don't let them stew in the sauce. Which brings us back to the sauce. I fear you are adding too much sauce, and stewing the dish too long, probably on too low a temperature, rather than just flash frying the dish after you add the sauce and getting it out of the wok asap. Whatever temperature you think is the maximum it can bear, crank it up another couple of notches, and when you think it has only just begun to cook, you're done, take it out.

cconsider this: https://thewoksoflife.com/kung-pao-chicken/

I'm sure it tasted great, and I'm sure I would enjoy eating it, but it's too saucy and stewy for what it is supposed to be.

tbf, the sauce was 180 and was yummy with the rice (made in the zoji, which is always 180)

that chink's blog is really good. we make a lot of her stuff.

authentic chinese food requires heat beyond what you get from most domestic cooktops. you need a LOT of heat for a very short time

yeah, the cheap route is to do that part of the cooking outdoors on a burner supplied by a propane tank.

the best set up is induction for most cooking and a separate wok burner with natural gas. also helps to have a serious hood to vent all the cooking fumes.

I am the *expert* at Kung Pao chicken. That is the only thing I order when I get chinese. You can tell the quality by how they slice their vegetables. YOU DON'T HAVE ANY FUCKING VEGETABLES! 120.

That's American takeout kung pao. The real deal does not have a lot of vegetables in the dish, they have separate vegetable dishes at the same time instead.

Wow, kind of like in Italy they have the "first dish" which is pasta and the "second dish" which is a protein, but here in America we like to eat everything together so the chinks and the wops can eat however the fuck they want but I WANT VEGETABLES IN MY FUCKING KUNG PAO. My 120 rating is CONFIRMED.
