Review by Library Journal Review

Barber is coauthor of Sushi: Taste and Technique, an excellent introduction to the topic, and author of The Japanese Kitchen. Her new book presents more than 100 healthful, mostly sophisticated recipes. While there are some traditional dishes, many of the recipes reflect influences from a variety of cuisines: Japanese Bean Ratatouille, for example, and Tomatoes in Red Miso with Cilantro Pesto. There are gorgeous color photographs of many dishes, along with a good introduction to Japanese cooking and a section on "How to Eat," with notes on presentation, etiquette, and menu composition. For most subject collections. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
