I love watching his show on PBS but I was only mildly successful in recreating his recipes. Now, the chicken onion meatloaf was fabulous but took too much of my time for me to serve again. We did like the spicy sauces. The cookies I tried were too runny to roll into balls. Still have not figured out the error? I don't want to steer you away from this book, but be ready for ingredients that you will not normally have in the pantry or may be difficult to secure. I'll leave each of you to your own evaluation.

The recipes are great on the whole, and are neither too complex nor require special equipment. There are many stir-fry dishes to be found in this book, along with a recipe for the best meatloaf I have had in a long time.

There are a few awkward missteps. In several unfortunate cases the written instructions are too vague to follow or are seemingly contradictory. The errors aren't so bad that one cannot figure out what to do after cooking a dish once.

Life Lesson: You can stir-fry anything in minced ginger, minced garlic, and sauce.
