Ah, but the mystery remains - no one knows how the dish came to be named after the good general.

Perhaps it's not for us to know...

I heard that's the way he cooked chicken.

"Oh, General Tso, you were a blood-thirsty foe, but your chicken is delicious!"

i'm not entirely sure that General Tso's Chicken isn't an American creation, like fortune cookies and so very many others--sorta like what we did to Mexican food, only with Chinese this time. in various joints in the States i've had several different 'So-and-so's Chicken' dishes. Mao Zedong's Chicken was the best in my opinion, but that's really beside the point.

however, being as i am in the heart of the motherland, and the ideal place to find out the answer to this mystery, i will contact my sources and ask around.
answers will hopefully be soon.

He is the only officer in the Chicken Infantry who outranks Colonel Sanders.
