Looks like comfort food. :okay: What is the purpose of the baking soda which then gets rinsed off. (Health warning) its dangerous to wash chicken.

You've told me that before.

Purpose of the baking soda is to velvet the chicken. An old Chinese trick. But you must wash it off afterwards. I'm not convinced that it makes much difference so I rarely bother.

[Edit: To clarify, I rarely bother velvetting; I would always wash it off]

The velveting technique I know is the one promoted by Ken Hom:

And it isn't washed off.
