On "typical" cooking shows, you get... chefs that always prepare perfect food, have pantries and fridges filled with all manner of exotic ingredients and kitchens stocked of every tool imaginable, and a James Cameronesque budget and production crew of Death Star proportions (shout out to Clerks).
At Cooking-Dojo, inspired by Les Stroud of SurvivorMan, you get to Be Ninja! Through the marvels of modern technology, I give you the unpatented EYE-ago! Yes, astute readers will find it a poor pun of the parrot from Disney’s Aladdin... however, in the aftermath of the epic Internet battle between Ninjas vs. Pirates, sometimes you gotta steal a good idea from vanquished foes! (C’mon, this is Cooking-Dojo, not Gastronomic Galley!) In early filming, I realized that my ”kung fu cooking was as fast as lightning” so the camera could not keep up! The good news is that through slow-motion videography, you can see my hands!
In regard to chopping and cutting, please be safe! Last time I checked, women don’t date hobbits that are missing fingers even if you are sporting "my Precious" Bling!
Also, a ninja often operates alone! This is a one-man production crew. A ninja must always use whatever is on hand to complete the mission (sometimes you gotta work with a package of ramen) and survive in the harsh environment of the kitchen!
Don’t listen to AI... (Note: He was a fearless player in his prime and sacrificed his body on the court.)

What you see here is real... failures are an opportunity to learn for both of us... thanks for sharing with my experiences!
