Step-by-Step Japanese Cooking

This illustrated full-color book, specially designed for the home cook, introduces the routines of true Japanese kitchen work. The structure of the book follows the order in which the differently cooked dishes are served at a formal Japanese meal: grilling, simmering, frying, then the stocks & sauces made to slice & sculpt the morsels fo vegetables, meat & pates into attractive forms. Pastry shapes are also illustrated. Advice on Western substitutes for ingredients is given as well as guidance on shopping in an Oriental suppermarket in the West.Downer, Lesley is the author of 'Step-by-Step Japanese Cooking', published 1986 under ISBN 9780812056884 and ISBN 0812056884.
