Sushi Chef: Sukiyabashi Jiro

My husband has in the past two years gotten into Sushi making and is getting pretty good at it. He watched "Jiro Dreams of Sushi" on Netflix and found his new Sushi Hero. He's been obsessed ever since. This book was the perfect gift for him. It's descriptive of the sushi making processes, has lots of amazing pictures of sushi, and even has recipes for the best way to cook sushi rice. Such a great book!

Great book is you love sushi / sashimi. Lots of great information on how to prepare the fresh fish.

In many ways this could be considered the Bible for Edomae sushi from it’s greatest practitioner. Beautiful pictures, detailed descriptions, thoughtful explanations. No stone unturned.

This book is for serious sushi lovers. I mean - SERIOUS. I'm not an expert anywhere near Jiro-San's level, but I do appreciate a broad variety of sushi - I loved having the background and in-depth analysis to provide me with a much broader experience. Just in time too! We had a better sushi experience in Hawaii recently because of this wonderful book.

If you like finding out the behind the scenes stories of things you like and you like sushi, then this is the book for you. It has in depth info about sushi prep by one of the masters of the trade. Plus, there are stories relating to the sushi industry and Jiro's restaurant that are quite interesting as well. Highly recommended.

Soy itamae en Argentina y el libro es bastante interesante e informativo, no lo he leído todo pero loco que leí y vi es bastante interesante.

I rarely write reviews, but this is just a lovely, mouthwatering and insightful book about sushi. Whatever the cost, buy. It will give an amazing insight in the minute details of fish and rice.

Jiro is a legend. The book may be twenty years old and I read it as electrons - but the knowledge imparted is as old as edomae-style sushi. Get this book if you want to know how the master does his work.
