Great Cooking Videos

You’ve made it very easy for us to figure out Chinese cooking through all of your books and your shows. Can you tell us a little bit about this book?

“My - my objective is to demystify Chinese cooking. A lot of people always have a mis-misconception, Chinese cooking is complicated, its hard to do and you cannot find the ingredient and all of these are not really true. The reality is now you can go to any supermarket and pick up all the basic ingredient whether it is seasoning and the entire aisle, you come to Los Angeles the entire aisle is seasoning.

Japanese seasoning, Korean seasoning and Chinese seasoning. And in terms of seasoning you can find practically everything you need to cook a variety of regional cuisines. And of course you go to poultry department used to be just pokchoy and bean sprout. Now you have everything, you have all kinds of exotic and traditional vegetables. So I think in a true sense the availability of the ingredient makes it easier to enjoy Chinese and Asian cuisine and most of the things that I do are very very simple so my slogan is always ‘If Yan can so can you’.”
