Publishers Text

In Japan, Katei-yori (family cooking) is a long-standing tradition of cuisine dictated by the changing of season. Thus, autumn foods might be cushioned by maple or chrysanthemum leaves, while spring dishes may be adorned with pine sprigs or crisp green leaves. Above all, every meal must be delectable, varied, and nourishing while emphasizing the natural flavors of food. This is classical Japanese cuisine at its best, brought into your own kitchen by the very talented Kimiko Sugano. From everyday meals to special foods served during festivals, such as Hina Matsuri (Festival of the Dolls), and Jugoya and Jusanya (Moon Viewing), Kamiko-san shows the reader the ins and outs of preparing authentic, delicious, and nutritious Japanese cuisine. Illustrated throughout.
