review 1: This book is a delightful exploration of Japanese food, not in the historical, regimented way many of us encounter it, but in a folksy, down-to-earth fashion driven by necessity, convenience, and simple flavor. The foods are evocatively described and the recipes thorough and easy to follow. I do wish it went a bit further with suggesting substitutions, though it's understandable that some things just can't be substituted. It's a great source for living cuisine, though ... and provides a clear understanding of the historical and traditional underpinnings of each kind of dish.
review 2: For the price of about 3 bowls of noodles at my local Japanese spot, I have learned how to make soba for myself in about 20 minutes for the rest of my life. This book is a gods... moreend. It's accessible for anybody who has played around with Japanese food/bento and not asking you to boil pork bones for 24 hours to make ramen or something. *cough Momofuku cough* Soy marinated eggs are also delicious. I've only made 2 recipes so far, but I'm looking forward to cooking my way thru this one. less
