Joanna’s second cookbook pushed her cooking skills in new ways, and her third did the same, no doubt.
“Oh, I burnt the bread, I over-floured things, I screwed up weekly,” she previously told PEOPLE of developingVolume 2. “What led to the beautiful photos in the cookbook was a ton of trial and error.”
“Hopefully I can help minimize that for people, encourage them to get creative and have the freedom to fail,” she added at the time. “Every time I mess up, I’m going to try again.”
Joanna also recently published her memoir,The Stories We Tell. The best-seller detailed her experience growing up in Kansas with a Korean mother and American father — and the bullying that ensued over her mixed heritage.

“When the manuscript was finished, I printed it out and I wanted [my mom] to be the first person to read it,” Joanna shared on the show. “Every five seconds she’d call, ‘I’m crying!'”
