“Yan can cook, so can you!”
Celebrity Master Chef Martin Yan, who coined that motto, is coming to Morgan Hill to lead a Feb. 4 free cooking demonstration at the Morgan Hill Library, located at 660 W. Main Avenue.
Yan will host the free Chinese cooking demonstration beginning at 3 p.m. No reservations are required.
“Hear from Chef Yan himself as he shares preparation and cooking techniques, discusses common ingredients and seasonings to use in different dishes and imparts valuable cooking hints,” reads the Jan. 23 announcement from the Santa Clara County Library District. “Just in time for the Lunar New Year, Chef Yan will discuss festive dishes to prepare during the Year of the Rooster….Yan is known for his life-long mission of promoting Chinese cuisine and his passion for teaching others the joy of cooking.”
Chef Yan was certified as a Grand Master Chef from the Ontario Restaurant Association, Canada and is the author of more than 30 cookbooks. His popular cooking shows have won the James Beard Award for Best Food Documentary Show for two consecutive years, according to the press release.
Several of his cookbooks and merchandise will be available for purchase at the Feb. 4 event and Chef Yan will sign autographs afterward.
