Japanese Gastronomic Revelations

There are journeys that give unexpected and profound sensations, beyond the purpose for which they were born: it happened to the author of this book, who left for her honeymoon and returned to Italy with the desire to tell the story of a country and its many cultural aspects, extremely different from ours, but perhaps for this reason extremely fascinating. Aspects that are identified in a key word for her: harmony. The one you perceive when walking even in the most crowded streets of Tokyo; which can be savored in all the dishes of local cuisine. A harmony that is first of all beauty, substantial and concrete, but also serenity and simplicity. Elements that traditional cuisine transmits in a clear and direct way and which in the stories on these pages contribute to creating a picture of Japan where every ingredient, every tool, every ritual has a natural and profound meaning, showing glimpses unknown even to the eyes of many authentic admirers.
