Make Asian cooking fun, quick, easy, and out-of-this-world delicious by Cooking with The CrunchBros.

Hundreds of millions of people have had fun watching the playful kid-and-dad duo, Jordan and Jeff Kim—better known as The CrunchBros—make, eat, and enjoy amazing Japanese- and Korean-style meals and treats on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. But the Bros have posted only a handful of recipes online. If you really want to cook and eat like them, you need the easy-to-shop-for, easy-to-make recipes in this bright and colourful book.

Perhaps you would like to introduce kids in your family to Asian cooking in an upbeat, funny, and positive way that will make them hungry, give them more variety in their diet (as doctors and nutritionists advise), and might even turn them into home cooks themselves. If so, this delectable and accessible book is just the ticket.

Or, if there are no kids in your household, perhaps you would just like to see Asian cooking in a new light: more casual, less fussy, and easier to prepare—think street foods like satays and spring rolls, or grazing fare like dumplings or ramen or poke, or a simple, soul-warming miso soup—then you, too, will find in this book tons of fast and comforting recipes for the busy daily whirl.

The Bros serve up healthy and vibrantly flavoured recipes in abundance, from Korean treats to scrumptious Japanese dishes, with recipes such as:

  • Bibimbap
  • Kimchi Fried Rice
  • Sesame Zucchini Banchan
  • Yakiniku Dip
  • Miso Cheese Corn
  • Shoyu Chicken
  • Misoyaki Salmon

Cooking with the CrunchBros offers a lifetime of enticing treats for diners either young, like Jordan, or grown-up but young-at-heart like his father, Jeff.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Cooking with the CrunchBros receives praise for its innovative recipes that combine Korean and Japanese family-style cooking, appealing to a wide range of taste preferences. Reviewers highlight its mix of traditional and unique dishes, like the inventive Macbokki, which blends Korean flavours with a classic dish. The book is noted for being family-friendly and accessible, making it suitable for cooks of all skill levels while emphasising a heartfelt narrative.

About the Author

Jeff and Jordan Kim are the much-beloved, wildly popular, incredibly endearing, and subtly funny father-son duo known as The CrunchBros. In their first three years, they gathered more than 3.9 million followers on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, with many of their videos earning more than a half million likes each. And what do the Bros do? Its simple: They cook, eat, and learn about food, mainly Korean-inspired favorites from dad Jeffs Korean background and Japanese-inspired dishes from the culinary heritage of the behind-the-scenes, off-camera CrunchMom, also known as CrunchBoss. The Bros get thousands of fan messages from young and old alike, especially from parents who say the CrunchBros videos have motivated their children to try new foods and develop a more adventuresome palate. The CrunchBros have been featured on Buzzfeed, Rachael Ray, Tasty, and Food Network, among other venues. They live with little-sister Kaiya and, of course, CrunchMom, in Orange County, California, just south of Los Angeles.
