Small culinary and cultural guide Japan

This pretty unpretentious hardback made a quick and accurate presentation of the typical culinary products and emblematic of Japan.
So it alongside jumble ready-made sauces, vegetables or spices mythical, more or less refined spirits (beer in high-end whiskey through the cooking sake), table services, etc.

101 Flavours of Japan is actually a tourist guide, an overview, a slide session ... of the Japan Table.
Here, no receipts: the presentation of a specific product to Japanese cuisine, its link with tradition, the way it is commonly used, how it was created, its price, where to find it (particularly in France) iconic brands selling the product, and a photo to illustrate it. All this in two pages for each product!

Clearly designed by an enthusiast with a sense of the essential, this guide is urgent to put in the hands of:
- Curious Japan (manga readers who want to know more about their culinary hero culture, eg)
- Tourists planning a trip
- Holders of Japanese amateur cooks recipes obscure who do not want to decode!

The back cover indicates that the author wanted to give them "the keys to appreciate the diversity of tastes and flavors of Japanese" perfectly mission accomplished!
