A few drops add flavor to many things. A quick survey produced the
following:

Sauces: Szechuan Chicken with Chilies, Shanghai string beans, Stir fry
sauce.



Marinades: Hot Orange Beef, Corn starch marinade for stir-fried meat strips



Noodles: Cold noodles with sweet and spicy chicken.



I speak no Chinese so I can't readily give you the Chinese names for the
dishes.
