Synopsis
This stylish book includes information on the history and health benefits of sushi, as well as tips on how to make perfect sushi rice, select the freshest fish, and decorate the sushi plate with beautiful vegetable garnishes. The Japanese often say that the best food is "eaten with the eyes" as well as the mouth. Traditional Japanese food is typically fresh, healthy, low-fat, and is almost always a visual feast. Sushi, like other culinary endeavors, is an art form in Japan. Now, with this practical guide, you can make your own sushi at hom, using Sushi's step-by-step instructions and photographs to show you how to make a variety of dishes. The recipes are easy to follow and are suitable for both beginners and experienced cooks. Filled with elegant photographs, this beautifully designed volume is a must-have for your cookbook collection.

The book is great--but the nori's scarce

One, two, three, you've got sushi rolls. Now, if we could just get some nori in my Nebraska hometown!
Good Book

I looked through a lot of Sushi books before choosing this one at a book store. It has great pictures (that always make me hungry) and is practical for learning to make sushi. It goes into detail about the ingredients of sushi and their Japanesse names as well. This has helped me in the sushi bars. All around a good book for sushi lovers who want to learn the basics of making sushi and more.
