Review: Great authentic Japanese cookbook, lousy shipping - A heavy tome packed with authentic Japanese recipes-check out the Chefs chapter for the recipe Sakura Scented Roast Beef. Lots of full page photo illustrations. Clearly written. Measurements are in both ounces and grams, tsp, tbs etc so measuring is no problem for US cooks. Includes prep time, cooking time and servings. Be prepared to search for some ingredients. Well organized chapters (grilled, noodles, pickles, rice, etc.) and an index. Fits on a cookbook stand and under a splash guard! Unfortunately the beautiful cover resembling bamboo arrived with a big ding on the edge. Luckily it was not a gift, so I decided to keep it. Excellent cookbook, am happy I bought it.
Review: Awesome cookbook! - Excellent cookbook! The recipes look awesome! The book is beautifully put together. I am looking forward to preparing many of the recipes presented!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great authentic Japanese cookbook, lousy shipping

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome cookbook!
*by T***M on February 4, 2026*

Excellent cookbook! The recipes look awesome! The book is beautifully put together. I am looking forward to preparing many of the recipes presented!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent but geared towards those close to independent producers of food
*by J***U on April 8, 2024*

This is a beautiful book visually, aside from being inventive, thorough, accurate and sensitive in its written content. I am gratified this writer did not attempt to engage in amateur scholarship of the Japanese language, as some other Western authors have done. The author says to substitute freely, and indeed I think using available ingredients is crucial to her whole culinary philosophy, but many of the ingredients mentioned are not readily available for city people in Japan, let alone the US. But realize the power of local producers--in Japan, for instance, I know restaurant owners who have convinced local people to raise radicchio di Treviso and other Western vegetables. I can really find no fault with this book--save for the recipe for Osaka kitsune soba. Kitsune soba in almost all of Japan is soba with usuage or abura-age tofu. Perversely, in Osaka in particular, I have been told there is no such thing as kitsune soba. "You mean soba with abura-age, eh?" as I've been scolded and taken for a cretin more than once. Presumably real Osaka people call this tanuki soba, but I would not ask for it by that name anywhere else in Japan--tanuki soba in Tokyo has for a topping the crusts of batter that float around tempura, not very appealing to me.
