Enjoy delicious, healthful Japanese food anytime with this stylish four-color cookbook from the author of the international bestseller Tokyo Cult Recipes, featuring 100 authentic and simple recipes to get you cooking like a pro in your own kitchen.

In Simply Japanese, Maori Murota gives homes cooks the ingredients, tools, and confidence they need to easily prepare dishes that are staples of Japanese family cuisine, such as udon, soba, miso, onigiri, and tofu.

Born and raised in Japan and now living in France, Maori couldnt find the Japanese products she normally relied on due to the pandemic. To enjoy her favorite Japanese foods, she decided to try making them herself in her own kitchen. Drawing on her twenty years of experience as a caterer, she began experimenting, making batches of udon noodles, gyoza dough, and fermenting tsukemono pickles using locally sourced ingredients. The results were delicious! Maori was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to make these authentic Japanese staples. Best of all, in creating these dishes from scratch, she felt a deep connection to her mother and grandmother whom she watched make these same delicious dishes by hand while she was growing up.

Combining detailed step-by-step instructions and gorgeous photos, Simply Japanese includes traditional recipes for the appetizers, soups, dinner entrees, desserts, and more Maori grew up eating in Tokyo as well as her own original dishes inspired by foreign cuisines. She also offers vegan alternatives and tips for many of the recipes, showing that a totally plant-based Japanese diet is well within our reach.

Mouthwatering, full of flavor, good to eat, and good for you, the recipes in this sumptuous cookbook, illustrated with beautiful full-color food shots, will take cooks of every level, from novice to experienced, on a journey to the heart of Japanese cuisine today.

This is a book about my everyday cooking. It contains recipes I learned from watching my mother and grandmother cook and by tasting their dishes, my mouth filled with flavors and happiness. Its my pleasure to share here the traditional recipes for the everyday Japanese dishes I grew up with, as well as my own original recipes inspired by foreign cuisines. This blend of tradition and fusion is very typical of modern Japanese cuisine. When entering a kitchen in Japan, you will often find olive oil, nuoc cham, gochujang (spicy Korean paste), and cheese. We are very interested in foreign foods and often adopt them to add novelty to our cooking.

Yet, we also remain attached to the jars of preserves and nukazuke pickles (fermented daily in a rice bran bed called a nukadoko), using the same method as our grandmothers. It is entirely possible to respect traditional family cooking while at the same time cooking with an open mind and thinking outside the box. This is my version of todays Japanese cuisine. In recent years, after the birth of my daughter and the Covid-19 lockdowns, my perspective on food has changed a lot. I began to want to use more locally produced food, with less of an environmental impact. My family and I spent the first lockdown on a small island in France.

It was, of course, difficult to find Japanese products in the shops, so I started making my own udon noodles and gyoza dough and fermenting tsukemono pickles. I was pleasantly surprisedthey were delicious and not as complicated as I had thought they might be. After an initial period of panic, I realized how much joy there was in cooking from scratch, in creating everything with my own hands, just like my mother and grandmother did. I no longer worry when I cant access the Japanese grocery stores in the heart of ParisI can do everything myself! In my quest to find the right ingredients, I was fortunate to meet passionate local producers who make miso, seaweed, Japanese vegetables, and tofu... all the things I thought I had to import from Japan. It is now possible to make Japanese dishes in France almost independently.

In this book I introduce my favorite 100 percent homemade recipes for iconic Japanese dishes, such as sushi and ramen, but also recipes to make miso paste, natto, anko, and Japanese curry without using processed curry cubes. Cooking food at home is, of course, healthier, because you know exactly whats in the dish, but its also much more delicious! I now follow a mostly vegan diet, but my family eats everything, so I cook meat and fish for them. I provide as many vegan alternatives as possible in this book because you can cook very good, totally plant-based Japanese dishes. I want to share my recipes with everyone, regardless of their religion or diet. I hope this book inspires your everyday cooking and that you enjoy preparing these dishes. I will be delighted if it helps you find your own version of Japanese cuisine.
