Synopsis Sushi Secrets tells the long and fabulous story of sushi. It is also a completely new look at the Japan of yesterday and today for all lovers of good food. Starting from a simple plate of sushi, the authors initiate the readers to the art of this remarkable dish: the art of eating sushi in different Japanese towns; the art of choosing and preparing the ingredients (rice, fish, vinegar, ginger, soy); the astonishing atmosphere of the fish market; the uniqueness of sushi bars; the know-how of the sushiya; over forty recipes clearly explained in detail with wonderful photos specially taken for this book. Review By Mary Fitzpatrick As a sushi lover, I really enjoyed this book. Although I consider myself an expert, I learned a lot of things I didn't know: this is the most informative sushi book on the market. Where other books are limited to how to make your basic sushi, this one will show you how to choose the rice, cut the fish, make pickled ginger, what knives to use, what to drink with sushi, how to spot the right sushi bar, and of course not only the basic recipes but a lot of new recipes I haven't found in any other sushi book. Not only does this book teach you everything you want to know about sushi, it will also take you on a tour of Japan and the mystical culture surrounding sushi.
A must for any sushi lover.
