I got this orange chicken last night and the bitter orange was overpowering. I stuck it in the fridge, when I had some for breakfast the orange flavor had mellowed out but I still wanted to test the flavors.
I added maybe four tablespoons of peach jam to half a container of orange chicken. Definitely sweet, but there are way of balancing that. Next time I order it I'll try it hot with a few different saucers. I'm thinking a spicy kimchi sauce, as would a jalapeño jelly. Thoughts?
Discussion ideas:
I like to make broccoli when I get Chinese delivery, what are your go to side dishes?
Which beers do you like with Chinese food? I like Corona and Sapporo, although if I do that spicy kimchi I'll try to find Kloud.

Add some food grade lye to it. The floor cleaner taste is citric acid, adding lye will turn it into sodium citrate which is less overpowering
