Knocking Out Take-Out, One Recipe at a Time

There was a time when the name Chen Kenichi struck fear in the kitchens of chefs worldwide. As the longest-serving Iron Chef, no other cook in the history of Kitchen Stadium has fought in as many battles. And nearly a decade after the Iron Chef participated in his last battle his consecutive win streak still stands at fourteen.

Iron Chef Chen may no longer be competing on international television, but in the many kitchens of his Shisen Hanten restaurants he continues to wage war against Chinese cuisine’s greatest rival—take-out.

In his first English language cookbook Iron Chef Chen’s Knockout Chinese the Master of Mapo takes on fast food, Styrofoam containers, and MSG with an unbeatable combination of familiar ingredients and easy-to-follow recipes guaranteed to score a KO with gourmands and casual diners alike. With Knockout Chinese anyone can have Kitchen Stadium-quality food every night of the week without fear of taste pretenders.
