I have a few Japanese baking books, but I find this one to be the most accessible and a great starter book.

Very straightforward. I feel like I could actually make the food in here with only minor adjustments to make things gluten free.

[Jessica · Rating 4 out of 5]

An easily adaptable book for those of us who have allergies.
Wonderful to see matcha but perhaps a little more yuzu?

Really I just want to make all the sesame recipes.
