Attention! This is not a Japanese cookbook, but essential for a cookbook. Indeed, you will find nothing less than 101 ingredients, vegetables, beverages etc. that make up Japanese cuisine. I do not know if you've been to buy something in a Japanese grocery store, but it's not always easy to navigate with imported products ... and written in Japanese. There at least, with the photo of each product, a detailed explanation and well written ... we are already in Japan. It remains to develop some recipes that you can also find on the net. In short, a book that I recommend especially since its price is modest.
