5.0 out of 5 stars Japanese Light, May 13, 2007
By 
Hilda Wry (Middletown, CA, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Japanese Light (Hardcover)
Artistically done, chock full of outstanding photos and brimming with wonderful recipes -- many of which I have tried, loved, and served to others who loved them as much as I did -- this book is a treasure in every sense of the word.

5.0 out of 5 stars A nice addition to Japanese cookbook collections, February 10, 2010
By 
This review is from: Japanese Light (Hardcover)
I haven't tried any of the recipes yet, but I'm good at eye-balling recipes and think there are many great ideas here for those who enjoy the flavors of Japanese food. Yes, some things have to be purchased at an Asian market - it's Asian food, for Pete's sake. I live in the middle of the country; if I can find these ingredients, most anyone can. Incidentally, my copy uses American measurements as well.

1.0 out of 5 stars Might be good if you lived in England, December 20, 2007
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Japanese Light (Hardcover)
I bought this after it was mentioned in our local (Columbia, SC, USA) newspaper. Unfortunately, the measures are in metric and the ingredients are hard to find here. The book might be swell if I lived in England, where it was published, but is not practical here.
