Big fucking nay.

What are you doing? The umami is already in the sauce, it doesn't need any more. You're catering to your obsession over familiar flavors instead of enjoying the best of what's presented. This is an obvious characteristic of a childish palette and should not be tolerated over the age of six.

>>9938217
Ketchup enhances the flavor of the umami sauce (it's actually sweet and sour sauce not umami sauce).
The red sauce they use for sesame chicken pairs nicely with Hunt's ketchup, especially if you put it on before microwaving it for 2 1/2 minutes.

You are a bad person and you should feel bad. Sambal is the only acceptable condiment for sesame chicken.

It's no longer sesame chicken, but many koreans (including maangachi) put ketchup in their fried chicken sauce. It's not a bad idea. Many thai places put it in their pad thai (that's kind of wrong and quite trashy and i just make it with tamarind, fish sauce and lime, but if i'm being honest it doesn't taste 'bad').

If chicken was acidic it would melt through the plate before you can even eat it.
Ketchup has vinegar in it which is acidic so it acts as a buffer to lower the pH of the chicken to a neutral 7 instead of basic.
