Even after living in Tokyo for decades and running two ramen shops that earned him international renown, he remained a gaijin. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Fortunately, being a lifelong outsider has made Orkin a more curious, open, and studious chef. In \n\u003cem\u003eThe Gaijin Cookbook\u003c\/em\u003e, he condenses his experiences into approachable recipes for every occasion, including weeknights with picky kids, boozy weekends, and celebrations. Everyday dishes like Pork and Miso-Ginger Stew, Stir-Fried Udon, and Japanese Spaghetti with Tomato Sauce are what keep the Orkin family connected to Japan. For more festive dinners, he suggests a Temaki Party, where guests assemble their own sushi from cooked and fresh fillings. And recipes for Bagels with Shiso Gravlax and Tofu Coney Island (fried tofu with mushroom chili) reveal the eclectic spirit of Ivan's cooking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"italic\"\u003eBooklist\u003c\/span\u003e 07\/01\/2019 pg. 12 (EAN 9781328954350, Hardcover) - *Starred Review\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"italic\"\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/span\u003e 07\/15\/2019 (EAN 9781328954350, Hardcover) - *Starred Review\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"italic\"\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/span\u003e 08\/01\/2019 pg. 116 (EAN 9781328954350, Hardcover)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContributor Bio:\u003c\/strong\u003eYing, Chris\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChris Ying worked as designer, editor, and publisher of \u003cem\u003eMcSweeney's\u003c\/em\u003e before becoming editor in chief of \u003cem\u003eLucky Peach\u003c\/em\u003e.
