Step-by-Step: Japanese and Korean Cooking. I can't wait to use this cookbook! I was in FullyBooked in Mall of Asia with the bf a while back, when I chanced upon a whole rack of these books. There were a lot of different varieties, from Filipino cooking to smoothies and cocktails.

This particular book only cost around a hundred pesos, but it has very good recipes, ingredient and measurement guides, plus beautiful pictures. I like that this book has all the basic Japanese dishes - tonkatsu, yakitori, onigiri, sushi, miso soup, tempura, and such. The Korean recipes are a great bonus as well. I'm guessing that Powerbooks also has these. For those of you who aren't in the Philippines, you might be able to get the books through the publisher, Periplus.

It's been sitting on my shelf for a while now! I have to stop being lazy and start making bento regularly again.
