Sushi and Sashimi, Teriyaki and Tempura

Synopsis

Japanese cuisine is considered to be one of the healthiest diets in the world. In Japan, food is much more than a means of satisfying hunger - it is an integral part of the fabric of Japanese culture, interwoven with tradition, and draws on the very freshest seasonal ingredients. The simplicity, purity and unique aesthetic of Japanese cuisine mean that it looks as beautiful as it tastes. This book presents the pure, elemental nature of Japanese cuisine from the delicacy of an almost translucent tray of fresh sashimi to tempura prawns deep-fried in a whisper of the lightest batter. The easy to follow methods, step-by-step photographs for special techniques and detailed presentation notes aim to help you through the recipes.
