Download or read book Modern Japanese Cuisine written by Katarzyna Joanna Cwiertka and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Katarzyna Cwiertka shows that key shifts in the Japanese diet were, in many cases, a consequence of modern imperialism. Exploring reforms in home cooking and military catering, wartime food management and the rise of urban gastronomy, she reveals how Japan's pre-modern culinary diversity was eventually replaced by a truly 'national' cuisine - a set of foods and practices with which the majority of Japanese today ardently identify." "The result of more than a decade of research, Modern Japanese Cuisine is a look at the historical roots of one of the world's best cuisines. It includes additional information on the influx of Japanese food and restaurants in Western countries, and how in turn these developments have informed our view of Japanese cuisine. This book is appetizing reading for all those interested in Japanese culture and its influences."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Japan s Cuisines

  • Author : Eric C. Rath
  • Publisher : Reaktion Books
  • Release : 2016-09-15
  • ISBN : 1780236913
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Japan s Cuisines written by Eric C. Rath and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuisines in Japan have an ideological dimension that cannot be ignored. In 2013, ‘traditional Japanese dietary cultures’ (washoku) was added to UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list. Washoku’s predecessor was “national people’s cuisine,” an attempt during World War II to create a uniform diet for all citizens. Japan’s Cuisines reveals the great diversity of Japanese cuisine and explains how Japan’s modern food culture arose through the direction of private and public institutions. Readers discover how tea came to be portrayed as the origin of Japanese cuisine, how lunch became a gourmet meal, and how regions on Japan’s periphery are reasserting their distinct food cultures. From wartime foodstuffs to modern diets, this fascinating book shows how the cuisine from the land of the rising sun shapes national, local, and personal identity.

Book The Japanese Low FODMAP Diet Manual

Download or read book The Japanese Low FODMAP Diet Manual written by Mami Nakamura and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before World War II, Japanese people ate an abundance of rice and fish. Now, however, many of them are eating wheat instead of rice. Most Japanese are lactose intolerant, but they consume milk and yoghurt every day. Furthermore, fructose in fruits has been increased by breeding improvement, and oligosaccharides and sorbitol have been added to processed food made in Japan. Do these high-FODMAPs cause disease? Specifically, have they contributed to the rapid rise of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease in Japan? This book is the English version of a Japanese publication from 2016 which explored the causes of this rise in IBS in Japan. It shows that the disease can be improved by a strict diet based on a deep understanding of the patient and their diet.

Download or read book Washoku written by Elizabeth Andoh and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2012-02-28 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975,Gourmet magazine published a series on traditional Japanese food —the first of its kind in a major American food magazine — written by a graduate of the prestigious Yanagihara School of classical cuisine in Tokyo. Today, the author of that groundbreaking series, Elizabeth Andoh, is recognized as the leading English-language authority on the subject. She shares her knowledge and passion for the food culture of Japan in WASHOKU, an authoritative, deeply personal tribute to one of the world's most distinctive culinary traditions. Andoh begins by setting forth the ethos of washoku (traditional Japanese food), exploring its nuanced approach to balancing flavor, applying technique, and considering aesthetics hand-in-hand with nutrition. With detailed descriptions of ingredients complemented by stunning full-color photography, the book's comprehensive chapter on the Japanese pantry is practically a book unto itself. The recipes for soups, rice dishes and noodles, meat and poultry, seafood, and desserts are models of clarity and precision, and the rich cultural context and practical notes that Andoh provides help readers master the rhythm and flow of the washoku kitchen. Much more than just a collection of recipes, WASHOKU is a journey through a cuisine that is rich in history and as handsome as it is healthful.
