Each chef was chosen because he goes beyond courting media exposure or Michelin stars. Each chef's food is soulful. And each chef speaks deeply to Hachisu for genuine connection to local ingredients, unwavering desire to give back to the community, and common dedication to craft.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book includes anywhere from 7 to 45 recipes from each chef, ranging from traditional Japanese to French- or Italian-influenced Japanese dishes created from regional ingredients. Each recipe is a collaboration between the chef and Hachisu, and therefore can be cooked successfully in either a home kitchen or restaurant. And bits and pieces of any chef recipe can be turned into a simple home cooked dish, or the recipe itself can serve as a blueprint for approaching the dish with seasonally available ingredients from your own locale.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe stunning art and design of \u003cb\u003eFood Artisans of Japan\u003c\/b\u003e feels both serene and mature. It is beautiful, but not excessively glitzy or over-designed. The book has a certain soberness that feels respectful, but not at all dull. This fresh, honest work delves into the vast ocean of Japanese culinary and artistic traditions, celebrating the chefs and artisans from around Japan ... straight from the heart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFood Artisans of Japan\u003c\/b\u003e is a finalist in the 2020 IACP Cookbook Awards in the Culinary Travel category.","brand":"Hardie Grant Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44896537706725,"sku":"NP9781743794654","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/food-artisans-of-japan-isbn-9781743794654","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
