Emiko Davies: Gohan
Simple, everyday Japanese cooking from best-selling author Emiko Davies.
Unlike what many people think, Japanese home cooking is not fiddly, nor time consuming. It's quick and remarkably simple, thanks to the Japanese philosophy that fresh, seasonal food doesn't need much to enhance its natural flavour. In this book, Emiko shares the food she grew up on, the everyday meals, cooked in the homes of Japanese mothers and grandmothers. They're the dishes she makes for her own children: simple, satisfying food like tamagonogohan (stir fried egg and rice), soba noodle soup, Japanese curry, yakisoba, and miso soup, prepared with whatever seasonal vegetables happen to be around.
'An exquisite but refreshingly down to earth guide to everyday Japanese and Yoshoku (think East meets West) cooking, with recipes that inspire and invite.' - Nigella Lawson
