From the Publisher

It is no secret that the Japanese enjoy the longest life expectancy in the world due to their healthy diet, but there is a misapprehension that difficult techniques and obscure ingredients are needed to cook authentic Japanese food. From soba (noodles) and nori (seaweed) to more exotic fare such as umeboshi (pickled plum), the Japanese Kitchen details the history, appearance, taste, health benefits and culinary use of each ingredient, with full instructions on buying, storing and preparing. Recipes such as Beef Tataki with Cucumber and Mustard Cress, Green Bean Salad with Creamy Tofu Dressing and Baked Sweet Miso-Marinated Salmon complete the sections, to take the ingredients from the store cupboard to the table. With specially commissioned recipe shots by an award-winning food photographer, plus close-ups of ingredients for easy identification and stunning location photography, the Japanese Kitchen tells the story of Japanese cuisine, as well as enabling you to create it at home.
