"A collection of more than 100 recipes that introduces Japanese comfort food to American home cooks, exploring new ingredients, techniques, and the surprising origins of popular dishes like gyoza and tempura. Japanese food is often thought of as precise, austere, and time-consuming. But along with the high (kaiseki and tea ceremony) there is also the low (food carts and fried chicken). Through recipes, fascinating narrative, and lush location photography, Tadashi Ono and Harris Salat explore Japan's long history of homey fare, which has now firmly taken root in the US. Some of the dishes are already loved here, like ramen, soba, tempura, and gyoza, but others, like Japanese-style fried chicken, rice bowls and okonomiyaki, and savory pancakes, will be deliciously delightful surprises, perfect for a weeknight meal or weekend entertaining"--

Review of 'Japanese soul cooking' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Easily one of my favourite cookbooks, and the inspiration for my much loved karaage recipe. This cookbook covers a range of Japanese street foods from ramen to curry and even Japanese-style pasta, giving you DIY recipes along the way for each part of these delicious dishes (as well as the actual dish recipes)

Highly recommended for folks who are looking for a great Japanese cookbook that is accessible, well organized and filled with great recipes.
