Chinese food cooked by Mexican, is it still authentic Chinese food?

Maybe you have a good answer. Here's a story i was thinking about. There's two guys a Mexican and a Chinese. Theyre both friends, they live together. They decide to cook some chinese food. They go out and buy the ingredients. They prepare it together and eat it. Years later they both open thier own restaruants, both serving Chinese food, both using the same recipe they used that day to cook some Chinese food. The Mexican has Mexican workers serving. The Chinese has Chinese workers serving. A guy walks in to the Mexicans restaurant. He thinks to himself, this is being cooked by a bunch of Mexican's, this aint authentic Chinese food, it doesnt even taste like authentic Chinese food. So a day later he walks into the Chinese guys restaraunt. He thinks to himself, man this is some good authentic Chinese food. Same excact food, two different places. What is authentic Chinese food in this case? also, why do people consider Taco Bell not authentic Mexican food?

fine chinese cooking. duck question?

I was in Hongkong recently, and had a pretty fantastic duck. The outside was crispy, like a peking / roast duck. The gravy however, was cooked INSIDE the duck. The waiter pulled a cork out of the duck, and the gravy poured out. The gravy was pretty bleeding fantastic. Does anyone know the name of the duck? Or have a recipe? It's not peking duck, it sounded something like "gua lor ar". :\

Quick Chinese cooking question about bean sprouts?

I'm trying a new recipe for Pad Thai. Okay, this may sound like a dumb question, but the recipe calls for bean sprouts on the side. Am I supposed to cook the bean sprouts, or just serve them raw on the side? Also, the recipe calls for tamarind pulp. I bought some (have never seen it before)...and they are dry crunchy looking pods. Do I just open them and crush the insides? Thanks much for your help. We are trying to expand our culinary tastes!!!!

Oriental/Chinese Cooking Help! I'm looking for that same kind of?

coconut sauce many Chinese restuarants make and put over chicken. There are no mushrooms or anything though the sauce, totally smooth and whitish, slightly sweet. They say it's got coconut milk, sugar, and butter in it, but I know by the taste that there is a little ginger in it too. I tried putting this together so many times it's not funny, I can come "close" but it's still not it. Does anyone out there know this exact recipe? I'd very much appreciate it if you do because it's delicous over boneless-skinless chicken cuts.

Ready-made sauces against starting from scratch yourself in Chinese cooking?

Having spent some time in Thailand / Cambodia and enjoying cooking those cuisines, I'm now getting interested in cooking Chinese food. I buy ingredients from stores like Wing Yip in the UK. There seems to be quite an acceptance that ready-made commercial sauces are fine, but that feels weird to me - I'd never dream of making a Thai Tom Yum soup with a mix from a jar. Do Chinese people use these ready-made, jarred or tinned sauces? I've got a recipe for char siu which has a whole host of ingredients, and then says at the end "or use ready-made char siu sauce and marinate for an hour before roasting". To be honest, I'm not going to bother getting hold of Chinese malt syrup etc, if the ready-made stuff is just as good!

What about MSG in Chinese food?

I know that Monosodium glutamate is out of fashion for trendy cooks, but does it still have a role in Chinese cooking? For instance, I recently saw a recipe on the BBC food website for char siu which included it. I find my Chinese recipes VERY salty anyway, so is it always OK to omit it?
