After working hard for the past several months, I’m extremely happy to announce that my first eBook,Just One Cookbook – Essential Japanese Recipesis here!

Just One Cookbook eBook - Essential Japanese Recipes (1)

After all, JustOneCookbook is no longerone cookbook! 🙂

During the past 3 years of blogging, I’ve received many interests and inquiries for my cookbookfrom JOC readers. My reply has always been, “No, I do not have published cookbooks, just the blog to keep all the recipes I love.”

However, with the increasing requests for a cookbook, you’ve convinced me! I realized many of my readers are interested in cooking Japanese food, but when you come to my site it’s not very clear where to start.

So I’ve selected 33 easy and simple recipes that my family, JOC readers, and I love most from Just One Cookbook.

Just One Cookbook Essential Japanese Recipes (e-Book)

This cookbook has over 90 pages of recipes and instructions for appetizers, side dishes, main dishes, rice & noodles, and dessert, which include 12 pages of Japanese cooking basics and pantry items.

Here are a few snapshots from the book:
