Japanese Hot Pots

Review Well and Good

2010-01-27T13:14:54Z

"Japanese cooking doesn't get any simpler than hot pots. Heartier than a soup, but lighter than a stew, hot pots, or nabemono, are a staple of Japanese home cooking... delectably savory, [and] cook up in just 20 minutes."

"I was pretty thrilled when I found out that [Tadashi and Harris] were working on a book together about Japanese hot pots -- because, well, I happen to LOVE hot pot. It inherently brings people together, often with everybody leaning over the pot to pluck their favorite ingredients from the broth with their chopsticks. If you're going to share hot pot, you might as well be chummy about it."

- Betty Hallock, Los Angeles Times Daily Dish

"For years I decried the fact that only a few Japanese cookbooks pushed your understanding of the cuisine beyond sushi. This year, New York chef Tadashi Ono and writer Harris Salat's Japanese Hot Pots has made great strides in conveying how affordable and accessible the cuisine of Japan is and can be. Whereas Momofuku's fresh ramen will be a labor of love, Ono and Salat's hand-pulled noodle hot pot will be a doable evening endeavor. There is plenty of cultural as well as practical information to guide you in preparing and enjoying your creations. Hot pots (nabe) are not fussy, precious cooking but rather the soul of Japanese cuisine."

"What could be better than a meal that is healthy yet satisfying, comforting yet exotic, quick and easy to prepare yet impressive? One that is also served in one pot that can be brought to the table for family members to gather round and choose whichever morsels they particularly like? If that sounds like a great way to warm up a winter evening then I have just the cookbook for you: Japanese Hot Pots: Comforting One-Pot Meals."

"Steaming bowls sustain body and soul in the cold months. Your grandmother probably knew how to fill this need and the Japanese certainly do, as Tadashi Ono and Harris Salat so deftly demonstrate in "Japanese Hot Pots: Comforting One Pot Meals" Once you have assembled the ingredients, the actual preparation is brief..The recipes are blueprints that welcome variation."
