Sitting On My Bookshelf: Food Of Japan.

I can't say enough good things about this cookbook.

Booth, Shirley. Food Of Japan. London: Grub Street, 2000.
Available at Amazon.com
  •   The first section is kind of an extended culinary dictionary, with descriptions of Japanese cooking utensils, cooking methods, tableware, and presentation.  
  • The second section delves into descriptions of the main foods featured in this book: soy, tofu, rice, etc.  
  • The remainder of the book is filled with recipes.  Most of them contain just a few ingredients, which makes throwing together something healthy and delicious as easy as it gets!
  • My only lament is the lack of illustrations.  But the few that made it in the book are beautiful!
