My husband bought this book for me about 25 years ago when we were on Martha's Vineyard. We had both visited and/or lived in Japan when we were younger so were familiar with Japanese food. This is still the very best Japanese cookbook I have ever come across. It is the exact style of cooking the Japanese do in their own homes. Simple, easy, everyday fare. The book also has many wonderful illustrations. Also, you would loose weight if this were your steady diet. I always lost weight while visiting Japan and I ate more often than I do at home! I give this book, along with a few other favorite cookbooks as wedding gifts. So glad it got reprinted! It is the tip of the top!
Japanese Cooking for Health and Fitness
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
A must book for beginners learning to cook Japanese dishes. Illustrations along with step by step directions as well as a complete list of ingredients, condiments, and cooking times lets you know how involved the process will be. Full color charts in the back with romanji spelling to pronounce the word in Japanese is great for shopping. It is in English for those of us who don't reade kanji.
