A baking soda and water paste rubbed into slices of beef for stir frying is called velveting. Allow it to marinate for 30 minutes to 1.2 hours. Any longer and the meat is mushy. This technique is used in Chinese restaurants and why their meat is always tender.

Thanks. The reason WHY people do both vinegar and baking soda TOGETHER is it is a GREAT JEWELRY cleaner. Especially silver
