Your on-the-go, go-to sushi reference that takes intimidation off the menu when ordering the Japanese delight—in the tradition of Dim Sum: A Pocket Guide.
 
Fifty of the most popular sushi items are presented as colorfully as a Japanese restaurant’s display case with clear photographs for easy identification, descriptions of flavors and textures, and phonetic pronunciations. Icons distinguish whether sushi is cooked (like unagi) or is vegetarian (like the cucumber roll). Covering nigiri, maki, and a few unusual sushi items (blowfish, anyone?), Japanese foodophiles can take it easy by ordering the crowd-pleasing California Roll, or go for broke and sample uni (sea urchin), an acquired taste, but a favorite of any sushi-lover worth their tobiko. With a short history of sushi, ordering and eating etiquette, and a simple glossary of out-of-the-ordinary ingredients, Sushi is the definitive guide to one of Japan’s most intriguing culinary specialties. Itadakimasu! (enjoy).
 
Praise for Dim Sum: A Pocket Guide
 
“Features photos and descriptions of the most common dim sum items, from dumplings to desserts . . . can take a lot of guess work out of your ordering.” —San Francisco Chronicle
 
“Explains about 50 items, giving Chinese transliterations of the names and clear, appetizing photographs. Steamed pork dumplings, shrimp dumplings, barbecued pork buns and spring rolls share the pages with duck feet and tripe.” —The New York Times
 
“An illustrated explanation of the items one can expect to find at a dim sum restaurant—with it, one can figure out what’s inside that steamed dumpling, what that tiny dish of meat is and how to tell the difference between a White Turnip Cake and a Taro Cake.” —Publishers Weekly
