"In these full-color pages lush with mouth-watering photography, carefully selected recipes, and detailed explanations, they communicate their knowledge with great flair and insight. I'm sure readers will feel educated, enlightened, and entertained, which is precisely how we should always feel when pondering my favorite subjects of food and drink." --Dr. Yukio Hattori Creator and Star of Iron Chef "This is more than just a cookbook, despite the extensive collection of recipes.

Synopsis:

Japanese food is not commonly associated with wine, yet many Japanese dishes may be perfectly paired with red and white, dry and sweet wines. Reflecting the increasing popularity of wine as an accompaniment to food in Japan, this is a great book for wine lovers seeking new ways to stimulate their palates and enhance the enjoyment of their favourite wines. Best-selling cookery author Machiko Chiba provides easy-to-follow recipes for 58 mouth-watering recipes, such as Pan-Fried Salmon with Lemon, Soy Sauce, and Thyme, and Beef with White Sesame and Sweet Sake, all illustrated in full colour. Leading wine expert John Whelehan explains how to pair wine with typical Japanese flavourings, such as soy sauce, ginger, sake, and sesame, and recommends the best wines to savour with each dish.
