EMIKO DAVIES The Japanese Pantry

A thoughtful and approachable cookbook from Emiko Davies, author of Gohan: Everyday Japanese Cooking. The Japanese Pantry explores the essential ingredients at the heart of Japanese home cooking — simple pantry staples that can be combined with rice, noodles, tofu and fresh produce to make authentic, flavourful dishes wherever you are.

Each chapter focuses on a key Japanese ingredient, including soy sauce, miso, rice vinegar, seaweed, sake, sesame and tea, with background on their history and production alongside Emiko’s calm, practical recipes. A beautiful book for anyone wanting to cook more Japanese food at home without feeling overwhelmed.
