Summary: I want a Sushi book!
Comment: I am looking for a book on how to make sushi at my house! Although this essentially walked me through all the basics of making sushi a lot of the book was taken up by none sushi recipes. It included sushi history, soups, decorative garnishes, etc. (and only a page or two of each). It only had 9 rolls (maki-zushi) and slightly more nigiri. I also didn't like the how the book flowed. I would like a step-by-step guide but this seemed to bounce around a little. If you are looking for a book that covers the basics, a couple of recipes, and some extras (non-sushi related) then this book is for you. Otherwise you may want to look elsewhere.

Summary: Sushi Cookbook by Yamamoto and Hicks
Comment: Although I love sushi, my mastercard is not everywhere I want to be. Making sushi at home is fun and much more economical. The Sushi Cookbook gives fundamental terminology, tools, and techniques that allow basic sushi to be made at home. It beautifully illustrates in 4 to 5 mini- "step-by-step" pictures how to make basic rolls, finger sushi, garnish and soups with one grand colorful picture of how it is "supposed" to turn out. The text, ingredient list, and pictures all leave the viewer confident that he/she has enough information to actaully make it.....but the Artistry must be learned with patience, grasshopper! It does not go into how to purchase quality fish products safely but does give terminology. Nor does it go much beyond basic sushi favorites (ie specialty rolls).
