Japan: The Cookbook

Delighted with this book, so many inspiring recipes

I'm getting into my asian cooking.I like that this book uses so much for traditional ingredients, it doesn't hold your hand, but when it uses japanese words, you can find what they are in the dictionary at the back.Some of the recipe categories involve some level of repetition between dishes, but then how many European dishes involve starting with browning onions in a frying pan.My only issue is sourcing some of the ingredients in the UK.The style of writing is simple to follow & I really like the bamboo hardback finish. On the whole I greatly recommend this book.

This is a serious cookbook for serious cooks.If you are looking for glossy pictures and not willing to put in the effort to either source ingredients or substitute ingredients then perhaps this isn’t the book for you but for the serious cook it’s a treasure.

This is a lovely book with great pictures and lots of recipes. However it can't be used as a recipe book because the font is way too small. It's an interesting read though.

Great book, clearly explained,with helpful hints and Beautiful photographs!The only down side, some of the ingredients can be hard, if not impossible to find!

Got this years ago, as I heard some of the recipes in there are amazing, and they are, well positioned and photographed. Some mistakes here and there, hard to be 100% proofread I guess. But still a reasonably priced cookbook.

Gorgeous book for anyone interested in Japanese culture

I received this book a few days ago and have so far enjoyed reading and browsing through it.Making a list of condiment ingredients so I can start to cook.
