There was a food anthropologist/historian years ago that said the most basic things to Chinese food were garlic, ginger and green onion. While there is some truth in that statement i would also add Chinese black vinegar, dark soy sauce, hot oil and shaoxing wine(the drinking kind, not the cooking kind)

soy sauce is soy sauce

>soy sauce is soy sauce
What? La Choy isn't the same as pinoy Silver Swan nor are either of those even close to Chinese, Korean or Japanese soy sauces. Is /ck/ being weak raided or are the Aussies just starting to post?

I do have ginger spice, bottled ginger too for sushi

What about the rice,it seems compressed, marketed again for sushi

Good Shaoxing (pic related) is an absolute necessity for almost all Chinese cooking. It will never taste the same without it.
And always use fresh ginger and chili.

You are funny but come on now

>Is it ok if use soy sauce destined for sushi?
It's not a perfect match but it's probably close enough.

>What about the pictured spice on the right,should i use it?

I have no idea. You didn't tell us what dish you are cooking so I have no idea whether that spice will work or not. Tell us what dish you want to make otherwise we can't help you with substitutions.

>Can I replace the chicken breast with turkey
Yes.

>What do you think,should I remove or add something?
Again, I have no idea. Tell us what you're trying to make otherwise we can't give you meaningful advice.

>I do have ginger spice
that can work, but fresh is best.

>bottled ginger too for sushi
No, that's pickled ginger. It is not used in Chinese cooking at all.

>What about the rice,it seems compressed, marketed again for sushi
Chinese cooking uses many different kinds of rice for different purposes. Whether or not you could substitute a Sushi-type rice would depend on the dish you're trying to make.

Nothing magic about it, but Chinese soy sauce tastes different from Japanese, or Thai, or Vietnamese, etc. It's not that any of them are "better" than the others, they're just different ingredients for different dishes.
