Yan Can Cook

[kaneda83]

god - this makes my hangover go away. in the days between when tv cooks were degenerate alcoholic "characters" and the modern days of tv cook as egomanical asshole celebrity. this guy got me into cooking when i used to bunk off school and watch daytime tv at home. he was a humble cool dude who liked his soy sauce and was great at his job. amen

[illegalsmilereturns]

Thanks shinfeels! I am a kid again.

[autokid15]

little know fact, Yan actually began his career as a TV chef in Calgary, Alberta

[LYJManchesterUnited]

[rpcarpentergirl]

I always did want to see a show featuring him and Jacques Pepin...mostly just to watch them do their prep work and show off their amazing knife skills....

Martin Yan is truly a gift to the cooking world.

[hoppers001]

chef yan and ming tsai = ultimate chefs. :)

[ivy2504]

this man makes hard thing become easy

[JamesMoi1981]

mad respect for Martin Yan. That brotha's got it goin on and is a great teacher. So inspiring

[str33trace]

He has so-so cooking skills ...put this here on top of this over here, and meanwhile I will show you this over here. Just like this. Chop this up, chop this up 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10. So easy! Jai Jan!

[amazingdany]

Two things I remember when I watched "Yan can cook":

1- Chef Yan cooking the shrimp chips in hot oil, love to see them "blooming".

2- Serving samples of his daily cooking to front seated audience on napkins. Mmmm!

I borrowed one of his cooking books, followed the recipes in it and it's surprinsingly easy to do. I gotta tell you that cooking Chinese food at home, it's unbelievable how much money you save!

Martin Yan = respect

[faithm]

I loved that show. Why isn't it on in this area?

[yay99str]

[wifeandmum]

I love him! I used to watch him as a kid. I used to watch all the cooking shows on PBS. I think that is why I love cooking now, and I am a great cook too. You learn alot from PBS.

[naturalbonsai]

[cice915]

[shamanboyjin]

[sagat4]

[evildwarf]

[katiemc66]

Man I wish I had knife skills like that. He rocks.

[memyanrev]

[evilminagrey]

I Love Love Love the way he explains the recipes I always remember what to do.

Because of the way he repeats him self.

Wonderful Teacher Exceptional Chef Thank you Mr.Yan !

[MMMAMANIAC1]

[CursedEyes24]

[ashes2flames]

[oneguy23]

jack cent cooke but yan can!

[khopdinumber1]

if i can cut my finger, so can you

[sailorchibimoon1665]

Really?

[wheatabix3xfrosty]

haha your awesmoe good one.

[sailorchibimoon1665]

Yan can cook, So can you

[sailorchibimoon1665]

If I tried to do that, I could've cut off my fingers.

[krazymusickid]

Oh my God, how cool! I wish I could do that... he makes me feel like I can~*

[d0ughboy07]

bob ross and martin yan rules PBS........always

[stoudimaire]

damn i used to love watching this show when i was a kid! if yan can cook, so can you!... but if yan can't, then neither can you!

[BavarianRhapsody]

I wish my knife skills were half that good.

[GravityProductionz]

see how he never cuts with his fingers out, always a closed hand almost shielding his fingers. that's the proper way to cut, that's why he's still got all his fingers :P

i remember watching this when i was a kid, i used to love it because he was so fast and his equally high standard of hygiene

[gameshowguy2000]

I've learned that if you don't want to cut yourself while keeping the food from moving, you curl your fingers knuckle side up so that the knuckles of your fingers touch the knife (if they're flat, you WILL cut yourself!).

[GravityProductionz]

yes very true, that's how my dad always told me to cut vegetables

[skrag2112]

He works so fast I can't believe he still has all his fingers. I'd have two bloody stumps from trying to do this.

[jlp58mjp]

im from a small town in central california and one day back in 87? i walked in fords department store and there was yan cooking up on some pots and pans i guess doing a little bay area tour... it was my first brush with a celebrity.... there were only like four people standing around watching him... it was so surreal.

[peteranton]

Such an idol!

[PLATMAN]

knife skills!!!

[malcolmthebear]

Look at that! Loook at that!

[Snoopy2299]

I liked the Wok With Yan show on CBC because he always put on an apron that had a funny saying.

[bringonthelovin]

Cutting speed doesn't really matter....just showing off. Quality is more important. I like way he tawk.

[Gardnerdoezit]

mmh big peeshes k loadat get rid of da sheed ohhh lokadat memba big peeshes

[tinyd0t]

i think his cutting speed is about average comparing to other chinese chefs.. but still not bad for an asian american

[Gardnerdoezit]

this really is an art. wow lookadat mmh lookadis u buttafy did big peesehes mmh lookadat get rid of da sheed oh lookadis
