Binging with Babish: Kung Pao Chicken from Seinfeld

Published 2022-01-25
This week, we're returning to the fictional land of New York City, where a sweating George Costanza proudly exclaims (in the third person) that he likes his chicken spicy. That chicken? Kung pao, a Chinese-American take on a traditional spicy Szechuan dish. I think. Either way, it's super-good, and warrants a couple practice runs!

The best, Jerry. The best.

I love how the mistakes are included. A lot of folks shy away from cooking outside their comfort zone, it's important to remember you are going to make mistakes, but sticking to it and researching will get you where you want to be.
-
The pure comedic gold of him knowing full well he made this wrong and just owning it. I love it

"There is no failing, only learning." -Kung Fu Panda, probably.

The imperfectness makes it perfect
-
i thought the transition from botched by babish to binging with babish was gonna be more jarring but i landed pretty soft on this one
-
The way he owns his dish and the amount of effort put into this video. Hats off to the team!
-
This was great! I know you had mentioned feeling a creative slump....I think showing us the trial and error was a really fun format. Some of the prior videos had felt short and rushed, I think turning these mistakes that were probably kept behind the scenes into content adds a whole new level of depth and connection. I know its a lot more editing, but I think it's going to pay off for you!
-
One of the BEST cooking videos ever! The way he shows the honest lessons and evolution of the dish are amazing.
-
I think Babish may have set a record for mistakes. I love how he un-a-Babishly owned it because if you want to make this for yourself you can learn from his mistakes. Thanks Andrew!!

Wok tips for babish: 1)pull that center cover/difuser off the burner to turn it into a blue jet of a flame. It gets the Wok way hotter. 2)flip the stove grate over so it makes a cradle to hold wok. I did both last weekend for some stir fry and it worked great. Killer episode, BTW!! Thanks for including the mistakes. Cooking is a learning adventure.

This is the best video you've ever done. Best format. So great to see you learn thru it. This is the cooking lesson I needed!
-
Whether it’s Calzones or Salty pretzels. George truly knows how he likes his food.
-
I don't blame you for the apprehension towards heat, but the flame they use for wok cooking is referred to as "breath of the dragon". Awesome show as always. I love the commentary, and the ability to show the mistakes along with the correct way.
-
Hard to believe after over two years watching and loving the show, but this is probably one of my favorites. Loved watching the process to get it right… well done Andrew.

Where is the recipe with quantities
-
On the day after Valentine's Day, you make Pizza Heart from The Loud House episode, "Missed Connection"
-
The honesty shown here is my favorite part of BwB. We all have failures in the kitchen and won't make something right the first time. Love the perseverance and resulting growth
-
I still always appreciate when you include the blunders. It reminds us that it won't always be perfect and how to learn from mistakes. Thanks Babby!

I love that you show all your mistakes and not just the perfect dish every time. Thanks Babby!
