I loved the inclusion of the visual explanation for dumpling folding. There’s a great selection of appetisers, main dishes, desserts and even drinks. I love the illustrations of the foods as well, they all look so tasty! There were a lot of animes mentioned that I haven’t seen and/or heard of and based off the food, I might add them to my neverending ‘to watch’ list. The name tempura comes from the Latin word tempora. In the 1500s, many Portuguese Catholic missionaries resided in Japan, and during the quatuor anni tempora, or four seasons of fasting (also known as Quatuor Tempora and Ember Days), when eating red meat was forbidden, they would often eat batter-dipped seafood and vegetables. Battered and fried foods were not part of the Japanese diet before this, but the practice grew in popularity over time and was adapted to Japanese tastes. Tempura is now seen as a quintessential Japanese dish.

Somehow I misunderstood when I requested this book and thought that it was more about food drawings, so I was a bit surprised when I discovered that it’s a real cookbook. There is quite a wide range of recipes, from appetisers to mains and desserts and drinks. Unfortunately it’s NOT vegan/vegetarian friendly at all, but I know I can’t expect that of every cookbook I read. I dont exactly know how to review a cookbook. 'The Anime Chef Cookbook' displays a wide range of different meals, with 'Stuffed Hard Crab' from Toriko to 'Omurice' from Blend-S, there is plenty of meals for people to try and enjoy. There is a wonderful range of both traditional and unique savoury and sweet dishes. I definitely appreciate Estero’s focus on creating visually cute or stunning food with innovative flavours. Appetizers include After-Practice Nikuman (fluffy pork buns), the interesting Tuna Meatballs in Orange Sauce, and the fascinating Paprika Seafood Caesar Salad. Memorable mains include the decadent Lobster and Shrimp Risotto, a traditional Spinach Cheese Quiche, and the adorable and novel Pikachu Curry made with apple vegetable curry and an edible seaweed and cheese Pikachu decoration! You can make delicious desserts like Kero’s Purin (Japanese custard pudding), the too cute to eat Panda Shaved Ice Parfait, and Kiki’s Chocolate Cake. Decadent drinks include Hot Buttered Rum Cow, and Senku Cola (livened up with cilantro!). You can even learn to make your own cute towering Totoro Latte Art!Oct 20 Final Fantasy XVI Producer Naoki Yoshida on the Game's Anime Influences and Design Philosophy Description Description Bring your favorite anime foods to life with 75 recipes— from traditional Japanese favorites to inventive recreations— that are easy to make, fun, and delicious.

Including: Rice vinegar: Also known as rice wine vinegar and made from fermented rice. Seasoned rice vinegar has salt and sugar added and is used when making sushi rice. Apple cider vinegar is an acceptable substitute. The care that the creators and animators put into this facet of the art form is so impressive, and one of the aspects that sets Japanese animation apart from other animated media.

Gives you ideas to make the recipes more authentic to the show (cook over Fire!!) but gives alternatives and tips to make it easier in a home kitchen There are four categories of recipes here: Appetizers, Mains, Desserts, and Drinks. Each recipe is setup with an instructions sheet that not only gives you a step-by-step on how to create the dish, but also tells you which anime it comes from down to the season, episode, and episode title. There is also a paragraph explaining how this food was used in that anime. I love that they do this, as it really keeps it with the theme. Usukuchi: A light-colored soy sauce that is actually saltier in taste than the darker version, used only for cooking.

Many of the recipes also had wonderful hand-drawn pictures of the finished recipes. I do wish that there could have been more pictures that would have illustrated how to do some of the steps in the recipes.
