Customer Reviews

One of the few Japanese cookbooks worth looking for.

This book has numerous color photos, and includes clearly written step-by-step procedures for making many of the dishes you'll find in a Japanese restaurant. The range of recipes span from appetizers, to rice dishes, to miso soup, to sushi and dessert. There are so many photos to guide you through the cooking process, that you are left with few (if any) questions. I've looked at a lot of Japanese cookbooks written in English and this is easily one of the best that I've seen.

The title of this graphic, explicit book is appropriate.

American Lesley Downer supplies the text and reverent mood for this book. Japanese Minoru Yoneda demonstrates, in elegant color photos, the classic preparatory and cooking procedures. Not just an authentic Japanese cookbook, but a triumph of publishing. Should be declared a Japanese National Treasure.
