    Wow!!!
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2010*

I am not an expert on macrobiotics, so let me place that disclaimer up front and center. I pre-ordered this book, and just got it yesterday. For the size of this book, there is much to love. The recipes are straightforward, and for the most part do not require ingredients too awfully obscure. There is a particular grain that I would probably have to mail order for (although she does offer substitutes), but the rest of the lists include things I usually have on hand as someone who has already started delving into this way of eating. (Ume plum vinegar, daikon, greens, sesame oils, etc.) I'm excited to try so many of the recipes - the spring rolls, "ja-ja" tofu, salmon soup, the noodle dishes, pressed salads, nori rolls ... I wish I had the book here with me; I could be more specific! You won't find in-depth macrobiotic theory here, for which I'm grateful. If you want to really learn the theory of macrobiotics, I'd recommend Macrobiotics for Dummies, or one of Simon Brown's books on the subject.Here, you find a book that tells a bit about Mayumi and her story, which is nice, but mostly, it's packed with recipes. There are helpful color photos everywhere - of the finished dishes, dishes being prepared, step-by-step instructions, and a lot more. I love the way the sauces/dressings are organized and laid out. First, a double page with a small overhead shot of each sauce, and a description of it and the many ways you can use it. Next page, you'll find the recipes. She's got a nice detox plan in here, as well. I really like how she makes use of leftovers in these menus. No waste, and the food gets used quickly, for optimum nutrition. Some of the recipes are similar to those in other macrobiotics books I own (these are simply mainstays in macrobiotics, such as pressed salads or pickles) but most are different or are variations on the theme.If I had to list one con, it would be that some of the menus may not be practical on a day-to-day basis (at least for working people), such as the multi-course breakfasts. I aim to figure out how to make this work, but without having to heat something up, I'm not sure. I'll get back to you on that. Once I try some of the recipes I'll try to come back and report. But by looks alone, I think Mayumi's Kitchen is a keeper.(Just a note to the publisher: I did see a couple typos, which happens, occasionally, with a first printing. Pickle was misspelled once, and in the ingredients index some text was omitted.) I would not count this as a reason not to buy this book, though.

    A perfect Cook Book!
  

*by O***W on Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2015*

I have heard many times brown rice is good, so I have been eating it almost 10 years. Compared to white rice, it is not tasty as I grew up eating steamy white rice so many  years. At first I lost interest in eating. But now I cook brown rice with carrots, edamame, or daikon, and it taste better.I read before that an American physician, Dr. Anthony J. Sattilaro, who was the President of Philadelphia Methodist Hospital, ate bacon and steak all the time and developed a deadly cancer. He was told he would die in a year or so. Then he learned about a Macrobiotic diet from a hitch hiker. He said, "Cancer is easy to treat. You must change your bad blood to good through diet. Brown rice is the hardiest vegetable, full of energy and nutrients. People eat wrong food that is why they become cancer.The physician ate faithfully, according to the Macrobiotic diet menu for one year. Even he went to parities, he brought brown rice balls. After a year, he became cancer free.After I read the book, titled "Recalled by Life" by Anthony J. Sattilaro with Tom Monte, I was interested in Macrobiotic diet. Then I found "Mayumi's Kitchen--Macrobiotic Cooking for Body and Soul," at a library. It says, "Macrobiotic is a balanced way of eating; it means consuming the foods humans need in order to live in harmony with nature and the universe." Mayumi uses brown rice, vegetables, fruit, a lot of beans, tofu, konbu, dried mushrooms and fish that are very familiar to me. I cooked a few dishes such as Pan-Fried Chickpea-Millet cakes, Soba Salad with Asian-Style Dressing, Chirashi sushi, Avocado Rolls, Steamed Vegetables and miso soup. They are good and I felt more energy. As I haven't eaten meat since I was 7, I didn't have a lot of energy like a meat eater. But I discovered that chick peas satisfied my energy level and fill me up.I also like this cook book because Mayumi cooks for  one or two people. As I live alone, I don't like too much left over. I want to eat fresh as possible. Each picture is so beautiful that it gives me a good appetite and Mayumi explains how to cook very easily. Mayumi recommends having a pressure cooker so I ordered it. When I get it, I can cook many other recipes faster and easier. I am going to use this cook book and the pressure cooker the rest of my life.This is the perfect cook book for me. I give Mayumi Nishimura a million thanks.
