Product Description
Top-quality, ocean-fresh fish - actually called sashimi - is used in some sushi recipes, but by no means all of them. The real key to authentic sushi is perfectly prepared sushi rice. This book shows you exactly how to make it, using both the traditional method and some modern shortcuts.

Um, not every recipe that uses rice still counts as "sushi."
20 Feb 2011
Format:Hardcover
I'm all for well-executed fusion cuisine, but this sushi cookbook by Yumi Umemura features some extremely odd, unappetizing recipes. Examples include "Taco Sushi" (store-bought taco shells filled with sushi rice and ground beef seasoned with ketchup and Tabasco sauce) and "Sushi Pizza" (plain white rice, flatted into a circle and covered with tomato sauce and cheese). Beyond the uninspired recipes, however, the writing in this cookbook is repetitive, stilted, and just makes for a very awkward read. It's also riddled with typos and inaccurate information (p.162: Korean sushi rolls are called "kimbap" not "kimpa"--something any quick Google search can tell you).
Overall, not a bad book if you want to know basics, like how to prepare sushi rice or roll a standard sushi roll, but there are plenty of videos online that offer a visual explanation of those very skills. This book's one redeeming quality, however, is Noboru Murata's photography--though I wouldn't touch half the recipes in this book, every last dish is beautifully photographed.

I was very pleased with my purchase of this product. The book was in excellent condition and was just what I expected when it came to the quality recipes inside. I highly reccomend this book for anyone who loves sushi and wants to make it themselves.
