    This doesn't even resemble any sweet sour pork I've ever had!

    Even my dog wouldn't eat this mess.

    I don't know what restaurant some of you people go to where tex mex seasoning on the meatand hot, hot hot, pepper flakes in the sauce!

    Truly awful!

    OK, listen up...here's an easy recipe that tastes great even if you substitute some ingredients. Here's what I used...orange juice instead of pineapple....powdered ginger instead of fresh....apricot wine instead of sherry...omitted the nuts, green onions and pineapple...used leftover roast chicken instead of pork, I cut it into small chunks and sauteed it just to heat through. It was great. I have to prepare sweet and sour pork for 20 in a few weeks. I'm going to try the REAL recipe...but being the incurable chef that I am, I'll probably add my own touches, like water chestnuts and red and yellow bell peppers! Mmmmm!

    This recipe was very delicious and everyone loved it. I enjoy reading other people's comment so I can avoid some of the things they would adjust the next time they prepare a recipe. I did cut back on the red pepper flakes to l tsp. and it wasn't that hot for us. This one will be a keeper and hope to enjoy it for years to come.
    Thanks, CCutler

    This was the best recipe for sweet and sour pork i've tried...and i've been looking for a long while. the only thing, i would recommend is toning down the red pepper flakes to like 1/4 tsp. my husband and i's mouths were on fire. unless you like things THAT spicy i would tone it down. but the sauce base was perfect... :

    This is the first Asian recipe I have ever attempted and it was a hit! This was a great recipe to get my feet wet since it involves an sauce and some stir fry. My husband loved it and he is not a fan of pork or sweet and sour concoctions.

    I thought the flavors in this dish were excellent. It made A LOT of the sauce, so using the rice is a must.

    I am sure mine was not as good as Emeril's, but we all enjoyed it so much, I make it a lot. We watch his show all the time here, and think Emeril is the best chef ever!

    This was delish!! My husband who has never had sweet and sour pork, loved this recipe. He rated it 5 stars. The only changes I made was to use less red pepper flakes (family preference, added snow peas and I did not have macadamias on hand so I deleted those. It turned our excellent. This is a keeper recipe. Thank you Emeril for another yummy recipe.

    This was much better than any restuarant sweet and sour pork that I've ever had! We LOVED it...will definately be making this one a lot more often.

    This was easy and low-fat. The Sauce tasted really good too. A nice recipe to have for a basic S & S Sauce for all occasions. Good Flavors.
    I especially loved getting the recipe for Essence. I've made it and given it as gifts for Christmas. The Essense is great on all meats when cooked.
