FAQs?
Can we add the sesame seeds to the batter of chicken?
Obviously, you cannot. The sesame seeds are the topping for the chicken and are sprinkled on the chicken once it is cooked and fried. The flavor is only good when sprinkled at the top.
Can we add ketchup to the final coating?
Ketchup is not part of the actual recipe. The coating syrup is made of soy sauce and some other ingredients and is made thick. You can add ketchup by customizing your recipe.
