First step in a Japanese kitchen: 12 easy to follow recepies

Discover the Soul of Japanese Home Cooking - A Journey Through Simple, Authentic Dishes

Have you ever wished for a gentle introduction to the heart of Japanese cuisine-beyond sushi rolls and takeout menus?

Written with love by a passionate cook who learned the craft firsthand in a Japanese restaurant, this book shares the why behind the flavors-not just the how.

You'll learn about the three essentials of Japanese cooking-rice, miso, and dashi-before exploring a thoughtfully chosen selection of 12 comforting recipes, including:

• Miso soup with tofu and wakame

• Zosui (rice porridge) - the healing comfort food

• Oden - a simmering winter favorite

• Taiyaki with azuki and custard

• Daifuku mochi with fresh strawberries

• And more...

Whether you're just getting started or already enjoy cooking Japanese food at home, this short but rich book is meant to inspire and guide-with straightforward instructions, a warm tone, and helpful visuals to accompany each recipe.

Why this book?
Because the author once stood where you are now-curious, searching, and overwhelmed by the lack of accessible, real Japanese cooking guides. Now, having spent time learning from experienced chefs, they're sharing what they've learned in the hope that your journey into Japanese cuisine will be even more rewarding.

Perfect for:

• Beginners who want to get it right

• Home cooks looking to expand their repertoire

• Anyone curious about the everyday dishes of Japan
