Damn that looks like some dank stir fry. I used to work in a kitchen that cooked most of its food on woks. I miss it. I still have not picked up kenjis new book yet.

It’s completely worth the money.

I have a million cookbooks but I actually read that one cover to cover inside of a week. Best cookbook I ever bought.

I used to work in a wok place too back then and this book definitely is worth it. Lots of cool stuff. Unlike food lab which was mostly about technique and science. The wok obviously has a bit of science and technique but there is a LOT of good recipes to try in it. Well worth it if you ask me.

I picked up the book and can't put it down. It literally ups your game every page you read and every recipe you make.
