The past few years have shown a growing interest in cooking and food, as a result of international food issues such as BSE, world trade and mass foreign travel, and at the same time there has been growing interest in Japanese Studies since the 1970s. This volume brings together the two interests of Japan and food, examining both from a number of perspectives. The book reflects on the social and cultural side of Japanese food, and at the same time reflects also on the ways in which Japanese culture has been affected by food, a basic human institution. Providing the reader with the historical and social bases to understand how Japanese cuisine has been and is being shaped, this book assumes minimal familiarity with Japanese society, but instead explores the country through the topic of its cuisine.

In 1975,Gourmet magazine published a series on traditional Japanese food —the first of its kind in a major American food magazine — written by a graduate of the prestigious Yanagihara School of classical cuisine in Tokyo. Today, the author of that groundbreaking series, Elizabeth Andoh, is recognized as the leading English-language authority on the subject. She shares her knowledge and passion for the food culture of Japan in WASHOKU, an authoritative, deeply personal tribute to one of the world's most distinctive culinary traditions. Andoh begins by setting forth the ethos of washoku (traditional Japanese food), exploring its nuanced approach to balancing flavor, applying technique, and considering aesthetics hand-in-hand with nutrition. With detailed descriptions of ingredients complemented by stunning full-color photography, the book's comprehensive chapter on the Japanese pantry is practically a book unto itself. The recipes for soups, rice dishes and noodles, meat and poultry, seafood, and desserts are models of clarity and precision, and the rich cultural context and practical notes that Andoh provides help readers master the rhythm and flow of the washoku kitchen. Much more than just a collection of recipes, WASHOKU is a journey through a cuisine that is rich in history and as handsome as it is healthful.

When it was first published, Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art changed the way the culinary world viewed Japanese cooking, moving it from obscure ethnic food to haute cuisine. Twenty-five years later, much has changed. Japanese food is a favorite of diners around the world. Not only is sushi as much a part of the Western culinary scene as burgers, bagels and burritos, but some Japanese chefs have become household names. Japanese flavors, ingredients and textures have been fused into dishes from a wide variety of other cuisines. What hasn’t changed over the years, however, are the foundations of Japanese cooking. When he originally wrote Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art, Shizuo Tsuji, a scholar who trained under famous European chefs, was so careful and precise in his descriptions of the cuisine and its vital philosophies, and so thoughtful in his choice of dishes and recipes, that his words—and the dishes they help produce—are as fresh today as when they were first written. The 25th Anniversary edition celebrates Tsuji’s classic work. Building on M. F. K. Fisher’s eloquent introduction, the volume now includes a thought-provoking new Foreword by Gourmet Editor-in-Chief Ruth Reichl and a new Preface by the author’s son and Tsuji Culinary Institute Director, Yoshiki Tsuji. Beautifully illustrated with eight pages of new color photos and over 500 drawings, and containing 230 traditional recipes as well as detailed explanations of ingredients, kitchen utensils, techniques and cultural aspects of Japanese cuisine, this edition continues the Tsuji legacy of bringing the Japanese kitchen within the reach of Western cooks.

But this book is more than just a guide to cooking Japanese food. It is a celebration of the artistry and craftsmanship that goes into each dish, and an appreciation of the cultural significance of Japanese cuisine. I hope that this book has inspired you to explore the world of Japanese cuisine, to try new ingredients and techniques, and to embrace the values of harmony, balance, and respect in your own cooking. As we close this chapter, I want to leave you with one final thought. Japanese cuisine is not just about the food; it is about the experience of sharing a meal with others, of bringing people together and creating moments of joy and connection. So, whether you are preparing a simple bowl of ramen for yourself or hosting a lavish feast for friends and family, remember the importance of hospitality, seasonality, and presentation in Japanese cuisine. And most importantly, remember to savor each moment and each bite, for as the Japanese saying goes, ichigo ichie - "one time, one meeting." Thank you again for joining me on this culinary journey through the world of Japanese cuisine. I hope that this book has enriched your understanding and appreciation of this wonderful culinary tradition, and that you continue to explore and enjoy its many flavors and delights for years to come. As we bring this book to a close, I also want to acknowledge the incredible team of people who have helped bring this project to life. For me, Japanese cuisine is more than just a type of food - it is a way of life, a reflection of the culture and traditions of Japan, and a celebration of the beauty and simplicity of nature. Through this book, I have tried to capture the essence of Japanese cuisine, not just by sharing authentic recipes and cooking techniques, but also by exploring the history, culture, and philosophy that underlie this remarkable culinary tradition. My hope is that this book will inspire readers to not only cook delicious and authentic Japanese meals, but also to appreciate the cultural significance of the food they are preparing and sharing with others. Ultimately, I believe that food has the power to bring people together, to create meaningful connections, and to enrich our lives in countless ways. And I am deeply grateful to have been able to share that message through the pages of this book. This is now our fourth book in which we delve into the topic of Japanese cuisine, culture, and customs. We would like to sincerely thank you for your interest and curiosity. Thank you for joining me on this journey, and I wish you all the best on your own culinary adventures. Your Candahashi!
