Reading manga sure can make a person hungry! Food appears frequently in Japanese comics, but what exactly is it that the characters are eating? Introducing The Manga Cookbook, an illustrated step-by-step guide to preparing simple Japanese dishes using ingredients found in every Western kitchen. Learn to identify and make the same things you see in all your favorite manga: authentic onigiri (rice balls), yakitori (skewered chicken), oshinko (pickled vegetables), udon (Japanese noodles), okonomiyaki (Japanese-style pizza) and many others! Includes sections on how to assemble bento boxed lunches and properly use chopsticks. Features original manga illustrations by Chihiro Hattori.

great submitted by kzheng on June 17, 2016, 1:35pm Finally learn to cook like animes and mangas. It is really cute and also not very difficult.

Fun and easy to follow recipes submitted by Diananana on July 7, 2023, 5:00pm This cookbook has a lot of nice features. Each recipe has a clear list of ingredients and illustrated, step-by-step directions, followed by notes about the dish. The introductory portion begins with 9 glossy pages of color illustrations showing how to use chopsticks and color photos of all the dishes. These pages are followed by information about setting the table, kitchen safety and ingredients. The index is organized in a useful fashion. I thought a manga cookbook might be more comics than cooking. I was wrong. It exceeded my expectations.
