Clear, practical and stimulating introduction to Japanese cooking
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 April 2007Format: PaperbackUnusually for a cookbook, this great paperback starts with the geography and climatology of Japan, the fascinating history of the development of Japanese cooking, and insights into the nutritional benefits of Japanese foodstuffs. Reiko Hara then lays out some mouthwatering recipes with clarity and precision, with two excellent additions to every recipe - "Quality tips" which help you know when you're doing things right, and "Chef's suggestions" for the more ambitious. Makes it all simple - highly recommended.
