I have found a lot of books here that looked promising that turned out to be a great disappointment. This one DELIVERS! With 100 easy to follow recipes, along with side dishes, soups and sauces you can quickly craft at home this one book deserves all five stars!
If you ever wished you could make great sushi at home, than this book is for YOU! It demystify this ancient art into an easy, No stress method is creating some amazing sushi your friends and family will rave about.
Using this easy to understand book as your guide, and with a minimum of tools, you could be making quality Sushi any time you want.
Just paruse the " look inside" feature to get an exciting taste of what you can expect.

Would recommend as a gift for anyone who loves good sushi .

I received a copy of this book through the Amazon Vine program in exchange for an honest review.

This book was around 3.5 stars for me.

It's a helpful intro to sushi! With a glossary of what different styles mean and the basic parts of sushi are is great. There's even information on sushi etiquette and information on wasabi and other common staples. The author also includes a list of what you'll need to make sushi and how to choose proper knives.

The author includes information on how to cook rice, assemble sushi, and even presentation. There's helpful pictures too! I wish there were pictures for each recipe, which I look for in cook books.

This is a pretty thorough overview of what sushi is and how to make it.

Loved reading about the history of sushi, as well as the etiquette of both serving and eating it. Recipes for pretty much every type of sushi you've ever heard of, though I wish there was more about the rice (is there a way to make it without sugar? How about in an InstantPot?). There were some step-by-step photo instructions (one at the beginning of each section/sushi type). I would've liked some tips/tricks/troubleshooting stuff as well.

Thorough and useful sushi cookbook that takes you through the basics and into both traditional and non-traditional recipes. I could have used more pictures, but the ones that were there were great. Not sure that it brings anything extraordinary to the table, so if you already own a sushi cookbook, this would probably be overkill. But it would be a great first selection.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for my honest review.

This book is so well done and so well thought out. This book really is meant for beginners and those looking to elevate their sushi game. Sushi is about precision. The chapters are laid out to help you navigate to each element you need. It is easy to use and following the instructions I made 3 great rolls for sushi night.
I received this as an ARC in return for an honest review. Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for allowing me to read this title.

I’ve been looking for a beginners sushi cookbook for awhile. This one is amazing! The recipes are plentiful, easy directions, and the first 2 chapters are about the basics - tools needs, a glossary is provided, and there’s photos. I’ll be purchasing a hard copy. Thank you to Callisto Publishing, NetGalley, and author China Ravitch for an ebook ARC. This is my honest review.

A good introduction!!

This book is a good introduction to sushi for beginners. I for one really appreciated several of the basic recipes. Not a lot of vegan or vegetarian recipes, but the book didn't claim there were, either!! I found good and useful information in this book.

This was a good introductory book on sushi, but I would have liked step-by-step instructions with photos for many of these recipes. The photos were generally sparse.
