The MasterChef winner's new book is sure to delight the senses with bold recipes and unexpected flavours in this alternative take on Japanese cuisine

A brilliant book full of unexpected treats

Subtle and elegant, who knew a cookbook could be both slick and delicious

Turns Japanese cuisine on its head. Full of unexpected flavours…, it’s packed with innovative recipes for aspiring chefs

Entertaining, erudite, and with accessible recipes

No one has done more to educate and enthuse me about Japanese food than Tim Anderson. Now with this fabulous book he can do the same for you

Japanese Soul Food

Former MasterChef winner Tim Anderson delivers the punchy flavours of Japanese Soul Food, from ramen to pork belly buns. 
 
Think of a bowl of ramen overflowing with toppings and texture and flavour, gyoza full of umami and spice, or meltingly soft pork belly buns. Currently exploding on the UK scene by way of street-food, ramen bars and easy-going eateries, this is the antidote to typical Japanese restaurant cuisine. 
 
From the Sasebo Burger to Japanese twists on fried chicken the book is full of unexpected treats. There are chapters on sauces, small dishes, large dishes, grilled items, ramen, desserts and drinks; Tim explains Japanese ingredients, how to get them, and how to substitute if you can’t; and he includes easy recipes for beginners as well as a couple of bigger projects for food geeks.
