Cornstarch, that is.
It is often used to thicken or as an outer coating for fried foods. When frying food, cornstarch can be used as a breading to help the food form a crispy crust while keeping it juicy inside.

2.*Pickled food**: Foods that need to be fried (such as chicken, fish, etc.) are marinated with salt, pepper and other seasonings to make them taste.
3.Brace: Evenly coat marinated foods with cornstarch.
4.*Frying**: Pour enough oil into the pan and heat until the oil temperature is about 180°C (350°F). Place the breaded food in oil and adjust the frying time according to the size and thickness of the food until the skin is golden brown and crispy.
When using cornstarch to fry food, pay attention to the oil temperature should not be too high, so as not to burn the skin on the outside and undercook on the inside; At the same time, the oil temperature should not be too low to avoid the food absorbing too much oil, which will affect the taste and health.
