[ABGAN100]

so why doesn't this guy have a cable cooking show,his great!

[BenjiPOTF]

I miss watching his show on PBS

[trotchye]

Lol, you can reach to the other table

[nls8520]

I am surprised he was never on TV again. I know he was doing cooking demos like this for a while. Great chef to watch very funny and made great looking food.

[MoparMedusa]

Awesome, I havent watched Yan Can Cook for ages!!!

[skinnysankyo]

wait, he didn't use his cleaver to stir fry? but that thing can do ANYTHING!

[flyingbeagles]

@skinnysankyo He was using a non stick not a metal wok so a cleaver would have scarred it for life lol

[illman8876]

This guy and Mario Batali: My two most favorite chefs ever.

[J25x]

Martin Yan is awesome. I saw this same show he did back in the 90's, different city.

Signed a cookbook "to future master chef, and sexy guy". I laughed.

List of ingredients as seen here: 2 teaspoons oil,1 clove of minced garlic, couple slices of minced ginger, small amount of chicken broth, 2 teaspoons hoisin sauce, chili garlic sauce 1/4-3/4 or more teaspoons, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, 1/2 onion, 1 celery stalk, 1 mushroom, for chicken breast marinade: oyster sauce

I wasn't interesting in cooking but this guy is amazing! :D

[pogisiG]

WTF happen to this guy.. :( now we have Bobby Flay,Emerill and american shitty iron chef shows :(

Searing meat does NOT seal in the juices. That's a myth.

[kiminokami]

@theblasto It depends what you mean by "seal in the juices." Are the juices in the center more protected by a sear on the outside, even though that sear also removes juices from the outside?

[theblasto]

@kiminokami All I am saying, is that the crust on the outside of a piece of meat from searing, does not protect the moisture on the inside better than non-searing methods.

Looking up "searing" in wikipedia. They explain it all there.

[eggrollman24]

hahahahhah sigh man i use to watch his show

[joni6346]

this is an EXCELLENT tutorial for learning the basics of chinese stir-frying in a wok from a true master, Martin Yan. Anyone who wants to learn how to stir-fry should watch this first.

[metaspherz]

Yan asks a person to sample his cooking. He then grabs a meat cleaver. The crowd begins to laugh. He shows it to the guy tasting the food.

"Tell me," Yan says, testing the blade's sharpness with his thumb, "whether you like it or not...."

The taster enthusiastically waves his hand in the air signaling the "okay" sign.

Yan grins as he tells the audience: "He said, 'Oh, you're perfect...it is sooo perfect, it is...' -- Again, speechless." Yan turns away in triumphant.

Brilliant!
