Cooking guide

Sushi-Chef-ChefPanko-Kong-Wing-Tang

Welcome to my cooking guide, everyone can follow a recipe, but that is not what will turn you into a great cook. Cooking is about instincts, you have to see, feel, smell and taste things. You did not learn how to make a recipe but you did learn how to cook. You don’t have to be a trained chef to cook, you got to cook the food that comes within you.

Who am I?

Hi, I’m Chef Panko, you may know me from reviewing knives on YouTube. I’m a former sushi chef at a Japanese restaurant. In this Cooking guide, I will teach you what I have learned from working in a Japanese restaurant. Once you have learned how to make those recipes by applying the techniques and knowledge we will define your own cooking style by implementing what we have learned onto your very own recipes.

Note: Each time you scroll down, you will have access to the ”Cooking Guide Menu” on your right.
