Here’s Chinese Cooking Demystified’s oyster sauce lo mein video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H1DNsQ5dyy8.html
Here's some stuff from my publisher about The Wok, a book that David Chang has called "one of the best cookbooks of all time.":
J. Kenji López-Alt’s debut cookbook, The Food Lab, revolutionized home cooking, selling more than half a million copies with its science-based approach to everyday foods. And for fast, fresh cooking for his family, there’s one pan López-Alt reaches for more than any other: the wok.
Whether stir-frying, deep frying, steaming, simmering, or braising, the wok is the most versatile pan in the kitchen. Once you master the basics―the mechanics of a stir-fry, and how to get smoky wok hei at home―you’re ready to cook home-style and restaurant-style dishes from across Asia and the United States, including Kung Pao Chicken, Pad Thai, and San Francisco-Style Garlic Noodles. López-Alt also breaks down the science behind beloved Beef Chow Fun, fried rice, dumplings, tempura vegetables or seafood, and dashi-simmered dishes.
Featuring more than 200 recipes―including simple no-cook sides―explanations of knife skills and how to stock a pantry, and more than 1,000 color photographs, The Wok provides endless ideas for brightening up dinner.

I really do feel like having this kind of lo mein in a book is very important in this day and age. With the expansion of international food culture, asian cuisine has exploded but as a consequence of restrauntation, people elsewhere can get the wrong notion of how the food in a certain part of the world actually is for the people who live there. We don't all eat tandoori chicken or dal makhani every day in India. They're sort of special occasion foods. Like here in India the moment someone says American food, there's a good chunk of people who think Americans just eat burgers and pizza all day long. And so a glimpse into the home cooking of people is one of the best ways to make a cookbook. Reason #223 of why I'm going to get Kenji's new book

Noodle dishes are awesome because how you can make them as "fancy" or as simple as you want. Some of these shorter videos are my favorite as they really illustrate the "non glamorous" side of home cooking. "It took only 10min because I just wanted something quick for lunch".

As someone who's been dairy free for roughly 3 years now due to allergies, I highly recommend Miyokos butter. It's cashew and coconut oil based, and because of that little bit of protein from the cashews it can actually brown somewhat. Comes in salted and unsalted too!

Hey Kenji, I am excited for your new book! I have been wanting to learn to use a wok since I moved into a new house with a gas range last year. Would you consider making a video with some guidance as to what to look for when buying a new wok for home use? There are sooo many variables and I feel like every time I try and do research on the subject, I have a hard time distinguishing between genuine advice and cleverly packaged advertisements.. I trust you more than most other RU-vid "personalities" and I would genuinely value your feedback. Will be picking up a copy of your book either way. Cheers!
