I rummaged through our old stuffs we left at my in-laws’ house (since we couldn’t take everything when we relocated to Dubai almost 3 years ago) and picked up some of my beloved recipe books. I know I could easily find recipes online now but I missed these books since I’ve used this for years and have written some special notes on it, sometimes creating something with a twist.
I’m happy to be reunited with these books again. They’re recipe books for Japanese cuisine (written in Japanese, obviously).

I love flipping through Japanese magazines even though I can’t read them! Do you cook a lot of Japanese food? How fun!
Yes, most of my cooking is Japanese since my hubby is Japanese, daughter has a very Japanese palate (despite living in Dubai for half of her life now) and because I love Japanese food (I lived in Japan for more than 10 years).

Nice article, thanks.
You know I’m specialist in cooking. I cook different types of recipes at home. I’m waiting for these kind of books which really helps me a lot. Any way i know Japanese language.
How cool!!! I didn’t realize you could cook Japanese!
I lived in Japan for more than ten years so I can and love it!

japanese publications, especially the ones for crafting, are always pretty to look at. you can’t expect me to cook with their recipe books, though. i would need subtitles.

I love being reunited with old things. Can not wait to see recipes.
Oh wow, those are so fun!!

I looked in the local community college class list, but they don’t teach Japanese so I’m kind of disappointed =/

I’ve always loved Asian food, but especially Japanese Cuisine……just love how flavorful and healthy the food is!
Ooh, I love Japanese food! One of the few cuisines I’ve never actually tried to cook. Maybe you’ve inspired me
I love Japanese food, but The Hubs doesn’t so I don’t get to eat it as often as I would like. I really love my collection of cookbooks, but like you, I don’t use them very often because I can get any recipe I need now off the internet.
