Same age. Yan had me making Chinese American stir fry in a little Iowan Farmhouse when I was a little kid. I have lived such a happy healthy life by gaining these skills learned in the kitchen. These skills kept me alive and well even when times were lean & hard. Yan is one of the foundational pillars of Chinese style American cooking. A culinary Master. And more importantly, a gentleman.

The OG Grandmaster. I used to watch his shows religiously when I was in high school. So much nostalgia watching him again.

Martin Yan...one of the GOAT's of TV cooking.

It's amazing to me to see how many people also watched him as kids. My childhood friends and I couldn't wait til he was on.

So many wonderful memories of watching Yan Can Cook on our little(5 inch) black and white tv in the early 80's. Thank you for making these episodes available!

I remember PBS being my #1 station to watch as a kid because it was a good learning channel for me, and plus our TV didn’t have much channels back in that day. As I was getting towards into middle school, I started getting interested watching the cooking series. And Yan Can Cook was one of my faves; he was enlightening and fun to watch! This was in the 2000’s. It’s 2024 and I am now 35 years old.

Used to watch this on TV (A CRT tv set!) In the 1990s as a kid.. so much memories. Now I'm holding a 6 inch wide display and watching it on youtube.. oh how times has changed.

I watched Mr Yan can cook when i was a teenanger,because of him I fell in love with Chinese cuisine and learned Mandarin,Cantonese,Szechuan and some Peking cooking styles. Always remember when Yan can cook so can you.Awesome words.

Takes me back to my childhood during summers when I was home. He was the original celebrity chef 😂

I loved this show. I remember Chef Yan on Live With Regis, and he said "Regis, it is stir fry, not stare fry." Had me on the floor laughing.

This was the first cooking show I ever watched, in 80s. Loved him so much because he is sooooo funny!!!

I miss watching Yan Can Cook!!!I was a child watching this and I always remember that Smile!!!

I know there's so much tension between America and China, and all I can say is I wish I could show all Chinese people the place in American's hearts of watching this charming man joke and smile as he showed us all a new world of food when we were kids. Martin Yan and Chinese Food are as universally beloved to us as Emeril and Apple Pies.

I've been a chef for years I love it. I watched this every time it was on when I was a kid I still catch myself thinking "ohh look at dis" while cooking. This man is a national treasure.

Man, this brings me back to my childhood.

Y’all have brought me so much joy in the past week when I discovered that y’all posted these videos. Not only does it bring up fond memories of watching with my parents, but I can truly appreciate how awesome of a cook he is. Made me cook some beef and broccoli this past weekend.

MY fav episode was when his clip on mic fell into a salad he was making, as he then chopped the wire to it with a butcher knife. Took him about a minute to realize that the hard clump in the salad was his mic and that no one could hear him, and that people on set were waving to him about it. Was Epic.

How can people not love this guy's knife work????

Thanks for posting. I remember watching this show all the time. He was so congenial and had charisma.

this was how i leaerd to love cooking when i was a kid i was born 1976 , and this was my favorite show along with mash

He's one of my childhood heroes. 🥰 I remember lying on bed and watching his cooking show. 🤩 I was only 6 years old.

Yan is absolutely amazing!!! I used to watch his show all the time. His personality makes learning fun. And yes he is handsome to boot

So many good memories. I would watch him with my parents. I miss them so much

I enjoyed watching him cook (especially chop food) during middle school.

I used to watch it in the nineties, I was young, and because of it I fell in love with cooking, today I am a father, and I sometimes make certain meals for my children and use the cleaver, every time I hold the cleaver I feel nostalgic and remember how he cuts vegetables with it

I am a retired master chef and when I was a kid I watched every episode I could. My first job was working in a Chinese noodle factory. Then many years later Martin Yan, worked for the same corporation I worked for In Charlotte North Carolina . Due to our busy schedules and at times even at the same events in the same building. I never got to meet him being one of my mentior and master in Asian culinary arts. Changed my life and all the customers I cooked for from all over the world lives using the technic I learned from Master Yan as a young boy If Yan can cook ❤ So can you. Retired Master Chef To The Stars. Rocco Salvat###😅

A classic show! Remember watching him as a young kid.

He was on cable TV in Scotland in 91/92 about the time we got cable TV over here !!! HOPE HES STILL GOING STRONG 👊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The 1/4 of a ton joke got me lol. I didn't expect that at all. He is part of my childhood and there are some of his techniques and ideas I still vividly remember and use them to this day.

i've met Martin Yan in person and I can tell you his heavy accent is all a schtick. The guy speaks perfect English!

This guy is a legend.

I use to watch this show all the time Great memories

His cooking show is my favorite to watch when I'm starting to recover from an illness. Cold, flu, etc....

This was one of my favourite shows as a kid. If yan can cook so can i

This is the show that got me interested with cooking, now everybody comes to my house for my cooking

07/10/2021 I used to watch these "Yan Can Cook" video with my mom more than 25 years ago. Thanks for his sense of humor, we used to have a great time altogether. Watching this video recall my unforgettable moment. Thanks for your uploads ^^

I learned about Yan can cook because he used to play on a CS:GO 30 man server very often, VPP. I didn't even know he was on a cooking show until his friends started talking about it. What a world lol. I miss this guy and the server. He was funny.

I first saw Martin Yan at Eaton's Department Store at Yonge and Queen St's in Toronto in 1972 Demonstrating Chinese Cooking. I have been watching him ever since. Just over 50 years now.

I used to love this show.💙I'm.so glad I found it💯💥💫💫💫💫💫

I was born in 1990 and I remember being a little guy in the early 90’s watching this with my Nonna

Looks so delicious !! I wish I had that cooking device!!!

I love this show

Love it!!!

I used to love his show on Saturday

I love the older shows like this, i grew up watching Yan, Pepin. Julia, frugal gourmet, grahm kerr, such better shows with the emphasis on the food and How To instead of a "celebrity chef" selling their products, catchphrases, and changing a traditional recipes to give it their own twist. Old school chefs are sooo much better

I made the egg rolls on the VHS tape I had, they were wonderful. That’s why I’m here, for that amazing recipe! Thank you!

Yan has impeccable flow. A real one.

Wow. Thank you for sharing these. My mom and I used to watch these on channel 11 in Chicago when I was really young.

This was my favourite show when I was a child, long before Jamie and Gordon😊

If Uncle yan can cook, just make sure Wan, Roger, Richard, Liang and Daniel and a few million others too can cook like he does

I used to own his show on VHS! Glad to find him here.

My favorite chef Cheers from Alaska

Today I love cooking and my love was sparked by this man

Wow this brings me back

Man I love his energy

I started practicing with knives because if Chef Yan. I've had celebrity chefs tell me I was nuts. Now... There's 44 stitches in my one hand over 25years..but I can chop like a maniac now!!

This sounds so nice. I'm making this one. :)👨‍🍳
