Sweet and Sour Pork.


Sourced from Jaden via Elise (hot). I subbed pork instead of chicken. I nixed the ketchup so it didn't have that characteristic red tint, and I ended up needing more salt than I thought. The critical components that I wasn't aware of beforehand (all of them) was that the pork gets tossed in a egg+cornstarch mix. I guess the cornstarch helps thicken up the sauce later. The sauce was equal parts pineapple juice and vinegar though I used a lot more than was prescribed and ended up needing to add cornstarch later. Using green peppers instead of orange and red looked bad.
