Chris Joe’s Cook Asian cookbook is out September 22, 2026, from Avery. The debut cookbook from the creator of CJ Eats features more than 100 Asian recipes developed for home cooks. Penguin Random House lists the 352-page hardcover at $40, with Carolynn Carreño credited as coauthor.
Chris Joe’s official CJ Eats site also identifies Cook Asian as his debut cookbook and says the book contains more than 100 flavor-focused recipes drawn from his Asian American kitchen. The publication date listed by both the creator and publisher is September 22, 2026.
What is in the Chris Joe Cook Asian cookbook?
Penguin Random House describes the book as a collection of tried-and-true recipes for classic Asian dishes, designed to make familiar flavors approachable for home cooks. The publisher positions the book around practical techniques and recipes inspired by Joe’s Chinese-American background and the broader range of dishes he shares through CJ Eats.
The official Penguin Random House book page lists the hardcover at $40, with 352 pages, ISBN 9780593853368 and publication by Avery. Chris Joe is credited as the author, with Carolynn Carreño.
Joe’s own CJ Eats cookbook page says the book includes 100+ recipes and describes them as recipes he tested for reliable results in a home kitchen.
Why the September 22 release is new
The book itself was announced before publication, but the qualifying news event is the actual release date: September 22, 2026. That distinction matters because this is not an older announcement resurfacing in search results. Both the publisher and Joe’s official site identify September 22 as the publication date.
The release moves CJ Eats from a primarily digital recipe platform into a full-length print cookbook. Joe’s official biography says his recipes and cooking videos have appeared across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook, while Cook Asian is presented as his first cookbook.
Is This Confirmed?
Yes. The publication date, publisher, price, page count and authorship are confirmed by Penguin Random House, while Chris Joe’s official CJ Eats site independently confirms that Cook Asian is his debut cookbook and that it contains more than 100 recipes.
