Best Sushi Book I Own, April 5 2005
By ak40sushi - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Complete Book Of Sushi (Hardcover)
I own about 13 different sushi books and this is by far the very best. They break down every element of sushi creation. Great photos - very helpful. The recipes are soo very creative and unique to all the other books. It changed the way I look at presenting and preparing sushi, and has helped stretch my imagination and creativity in my own sushi dishes.

Good basics with some things you probably haven't seen, Nov 15 2004

This review is from: Complete Book Of Sushi (Hardcover)
I own at least a dozen books on sushi and they tend to have a lot of overlap in recipes and information. I think this is one of the best and had quite a number of things which were to me new ideas. Great pictures and well organized.

Easily The Best Book On Sushi This Side Of The Rising Sun, Dec 20 2005
By Notnadia - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Complete Book Of Sushi (Hardcover)
Okay, I was going to add some faux-Japanese ambiance here by writing a haiku for my review but it's easier to get half credit by mentioning that I almost did. Moving along, this is as I said the best of several books I've read on the art of making sushi. Not only is the technique of creating sushi carefully explained, but the history of how this most lovely of culinary art forms came about is covered in copious detail. The illustrations here showcase what a master sushi chef can achieve as far as presentation, and of course no effort is spared by the authors in proclaiming the simple truth that sushi is one of the most delicious foods in existence. I have no idea why it took so long for the appreciation of sushi to infiltrate American culture but thank goodness it's finally here. Now that it is, this book can take you to the next frontier, and that is your own personal liberation from the need for another person to prepare your sushi for you. With this book, you can make your own and do it for a fraction of the cost of buying it at a restaurant. It may not look as pretty at first, but umm, it'll be tasty. Yes, it takes confidence to take up the bamboo rolling screen that initial time, but trust me, you can do it and this patient how-to book will get you through from dream to presentation. Soon you'll be serving sushi at every gathering and your friends, co-workers and relatives-by-marriage will be just plain amazed. "Why this sushi thing isn't disgusting at all!" your significant other's Great Aunt Minnie will proclaim while you blush with pride. I seriously liked this book and have bought two more copies to give out to friends this Christmas season. Anything I can do to proliferate the embracing of sushi--metaphorically speaking--by the US public I'll gladly do. I hope after reading The Complete Book Of Sushi, you feel the same. What's left to say? Well, get this book. It's good and it's the one you've been looking for. Trust me.
