Always have your spices stored in a dark and cool place. Storing them out in the light and heat will cause them to lose some of their shelf life.

Getting thin strips of meat is a lot easier if you partially freeze the meat first. Thin strips of meat are ideal for meals that are originally ethnically Asian.

This will ensure even cooking of your meat.
