The Japanese Kitchen by Hiroko Shimbo
I have always loved Japanese food, both in its traditional forms and its more western forms. For about a year now I have made Nori Maki rolls on a somewhat regular basis, but I’ve wanted to learn Japanese cooking more in depth. The Japanese Kitchen by Hiroko Shimbo is an exhaustive source of information on Japanese ingredients and cuisine and a comprehensive collection of traditional Japanese recipes. The book begins with an overview of ingredients, tools, and terms used in Japanese cooking. It then goes into a discussion of staple Japanese ingredients and how to make and use them. For example, there are a few recipes for different kinds of dashi, a delicate but nicely flavored fish stock made from kelp and dried bonito flakes that is used in Japanese cooking as often as chicken and veal stock are used in French cooking.
Shimbo explains how Japan is a country that, because of it’s weather, has always had an abundance of fresh ingredients, especially seafood and vegetables. As a result, Japanese cooks never had to heavily spice foods to disguise rotten flavors. The cuisine revolves around the freshness of ingredients, is minimalist yet discreetly complex in its preparation and presentation, and had plenty to offer in terms of techniques and interesting ingredients. Also, when you’re done eating a Japanese dinner, your body feels great. This is my biggest problem with French food and other cuisines that use large quantities of butter, cream, and meats. It tastes good when I’m eating it, but afterward I feel terrible. Japanese cuisine uses mostly seafood and vegetables, and preparations that offer plenty of interesting sensations without straining your body.
If you’re looking to explore Japanese cooking in depth this is definitely the book to get. It touches on all aspects of Japanese cooking and gives equal attention to all facets of the cuisine.
