    Best of the Best! Extraordinarily comprehensive Sushi cookbook. Basic to very advanced. Outstanding!
  

*by F***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 2, 2019*

I am a very advanced Home and Personal Chef who specializes in a number of Japanese cooking methods and foods. I own a plethora of Japanese cookbooks and sushi cookbooks that I use for reference and to review.Kimiko Barber and Hiroki Tamemura have published what I consider to be the Bible of Sushi preparation and serving. This is a truly awesome compilation...and absolutely the best of all the Sushi cookbooks I have read and/or reviewed.They start the book with Basics including Utensils, Ingredients, Basic Recipes, and then proceed to discuss Round and Flat Fish as well as Shellfish and Roe.The book continues with Making. How to make scattered Sushi, stuffed Sushi, Pressed Sushi, Rolled Sushi, and Hand-formed Sushi. COMPLETE!  Awesome!They sum up with a chapter on what to do and how to order at a Sushi Bar, as well as proper Sushi Etiquette, What to drink, serving Sushi at Home, and Troubleshooting. Fantastic!The book is FILLED with outstanding photos and both prepping as well as end products. Techniques are clearly delineated with instructions and photos.The book has a Glossary; a notable Restaurant Directory; a list of Specialty Retailers, and an index.This is a seriously detailed and comprehensive cookbook...the likes of which I have never seen in regards to Sushi.I would gladly rate this book WELL above Five Stars if I could. It is that good.  It has earned my honest and VERY wholehearted recommendation for anyone who has even a passing interest in making or eating Sushi.A+++!!  Get it, you'll love it!*If you found my review helpful to you, please let Amazon know by clicking the "HELPFUL" button below!

    Perhaps *the* book on sushi
  

*by P***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 1, 2013*

No other work that I have ever laid my hands on has been such a masterful treatment of sushi, unless that work was a hefty tome that would end up languishing on a shelf. This book covers everything anyone from a beginner to a master would need, and does it in a total size that you can pack with you on a trip or in any kitchen.What you get:-History. It makes a massive difference to your sushi appreciation, and your cooking, when you know where sushi came from. Vinegar-laden rice began as a preservation method, protecting fresh coastal fish for inland transport. Tips like these provide insight into why you prepare sushi the way you do, that no simple ingredient list can ever convey.-Information. Not only do you get a breakdown of traditional and modern ingredients and tools, but also thorough breakdowns of why you use what items and what the pitfalls may be- for example, how the "wasabi paste" in your local market probably isn't wasabi.-Building blocks. It's been said that you can put basically anything into a sushi roll, so where a book really needs good focus is on preparing the rice, technique for rolling, and generally everything before the "recipe" of what to throw in the roll. This book includes all the building blocks in the necessary detail.-Plenty of advanced tips. Individual butcher diagrams of common fish and how to prepare them. Recipes to put your fundamentals into practice are delicious and well placed, from the simple to the nearly impossible. Tool lists include all of the rare, authentic, and historic items so even a master chef might find a piece to experiment with.Simply put, if you want to make or enjoy sushi, you need this book now. No other work is even close to being this concise, while maintaining the proper depth of information.

    Great Pictures and Techniques BUT No Sauce Recipes :(
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 7, 2015*

OK, first of all, my review would be 3 stars if it weren't for the amazing pictures.Anyway, this is a great book for those new to sushi and that have very little to no experience making sushi. I have personally not made sushi with the "pressed" sushi method before nor have i tried it but I will definitely attempt it now.My main/only complaint about this book is that it doesn't have any recipes for sauces that quality sushi restaurants put on their nigiri sushi. that was one of the things i was most looking forward to.Things i did like are that they tell you how to filet specific types of fish (flat & round). They also make it look incredibly easy which it's not. lol I also like that they go over etiquette for when you dine at a sushi restaurant and make it clear that bathing your sushi in soy sauce and wasabi is not how you eat sushi.I have a friend who literally covers his sushi in sriracha and claims that it brings out the flavor of the sushi...Overall great book and i'll definitely hold on to it to use some of the methods in here when i make sushi at home. BUT if you're looking for a recipe book for sushi, look elsewhere. This is a book for the novice sushi chef.
