The Story
Bringing balance, colour and flavour to the family table, osozai are everyday dishes in Japanese home cooking. Bright salads, quick pickles, simmered vegetables and satisfying mains - simple, home-style dishes designed to fit everyday life and be enjoyed together.
Featuring 80 accessible recipes made for sharing, this cookbook showcases the food Meg grew up eating - pumpkin nimono, hakusai pickles - and the food she now cooks at home for friends and family - kara-age, miso butter corn, smashed cucumber and edamame salad.
Whether you're new to miso, dashi and mirin or looking to build a regular spread, you'll find dishes to cook on repeat and make your own. This is modern Japanese cooking at its best: thoughtful, nourishing and full of joy.
'This book is so much more than the dishes. It's about community'
NANCY SINGLETON HACHISU, AUTHOR OF JAPAN: THE COOKBOOK
'A balanced collection of tasty recipes that could work in any home, all of which I will happily add to my own family repertoire'
