In this episode of Yan Can Cook, Martin shows us how to make several dishes, perfect for a formal Chinese banquet. He starts off with nesting scallops (1:55) featuring a nest made from fried potato (or taro), double deep fried prawns (12:22), Jay Chicken (22:44), and ends the episode with a lesson in creating elaborate garnish (18:07) with Lily Lijun Wang from the Great Wall Hotel in Beijing. Whether you want to make something as simple as a turnip rose or a more ambitious peacock made from vegetables, Martin and Lily are here to get you started.

About Yan Can Cook:
After receiving his formal restaurant training in Hong Kong, Chef Martin Yan immigrated to Calgary, Canada where he was asked to appear in a daytime news program to demonstrate Chinese cooking. The rest, as they say, is television history. In 1978, he launched the groundbreaking Chinese cooking series 'Yan Can Cook' on public television. Infused with Martin's signature humor and energy, Yan Can Cook has gone on to become a global phenomenon and has won multiple James Beard Awards.

Chinese people don't eat rice as much as Southeast Asians do.

Potatoes are very common in China… maybe not in Martin’s day; maybe not in his village. But don’t generalise

Seriously? Dude, this is from the late 80's early 90's, and Yan is probably in his late 40's ... Idk, it is hard to tell, either way he was growing up in the 40's at least, so that is far before the globalization we see now.

Sorry Yan.. you lost me at shark fin soup. It's pretty cruel what they do to get those shark fins.

@lobster1002 Жыл бұрын

That was 1988.

@ronronchau Жыл бұрын

nowadays, most of the "shark" fin soup is using gelatin noodles or konjac noodles as substitute(as the taste doesn't come from the fin itself at all, except its fishiness) so no more cruel fin-cutting process happen unless you can afford a huge premium like him having his manchurian-han banquet trip

Don't view the past through the lens of the present, view it in the context of the time period in which it existed. Presentism is a bad way of seeing the world.
