I like to refer to this before shopping for and preparing a Sukiyaki dinner. There are helpful step-by-step photos for each recipe. Most of the dishes in this slim cookbook are what you would see prepared in a typical home in Japan: miso soup, oyako donburi, chicken curry rice, pork cutlet, ginger pork saute, spinach salad, chilled tofu, simmered Japanese pumpkin, potato croquettes, etc.
Excellent primer on Japanese cooking. Filled with inspiring photos and step-by-step instructions. If you want to try out making your own Japanese food then get this book and save lots of money by doing it yourself rather than paying for overpriced restaurant food.
