Easy fresh food.
I bought this book because I am an Iron Chef fan and enjoyed watching the battle with Katsuyo Kobayashi so much. Don't laugh, it turned out to be an excellent cookbook. The recipes are fresh, delicious, and easy to follow. My 5 year old that hates nearly any food he sees has yet to turn down a meal cooked from this book. I have several good Japanese cookbooks but this one just may turn out to be the one I use the most often.
It's quick and easy, but lack of important steps!!
My husband bought this book for himself to make Japanese meals for me (I am a Japanese and he is not). The auther is famous in Japan and the selection of dishes is okay. The book contains some dishese that I like and the procedures are very simple and easy, BUT she skipped some very important procedures and ingredients to make the recipes more simple and easy!! (One of the examples is that a fish dish recipe skips an important step to get rid of fishy smell.) I am sure that your dishes would not be tasty if you just follow the recipes.
quick and easy but not so tasty
After having lived in Japan for 3 years I was very interested in preparing home-cooked Japanese meals and received this book as a gift. The recipes are easy to measure out and prepare, but I have not been satisfied with the outcome of any of the dishes. They do not taste the way I have had the pleasure of eating them at homes or restaurants in Japan. If you would like to prepare authentic Japanese meals I would not recommend this book.
