Plus she’s constantly on the lookout for new ingredients so she can prepare the very best dishes the Clover Kingdom has ever seen. The care that the creators and animators put into this facet of the art form is so impressive, and one of the aspects that sets Japanese animation apart from other animated media. So last night (writing this one early September) I just couldn’t sleep. Not sure why. But it was a good thing for this book. I had plans on reading it the next day but if one cannot sleep why not read the book now? We have 4 sections in this book. Appetizers (yum), Mains (yum yum), Desserts (OMG YES), and Drinks (mmm). There are easy recipes and harder recipes. Some recipes require you to get items that you may not be able to get (heavy cream for me and some other small things), some recipes have items you can find everywhere.

Food in anime always makes me drool and so did each recipe in this book which is inspired by a scene from an anime. With each recipe you will get a short telling of what happened when the food from this anime was served, making it a nice way of remembering your favorite anime and even getting inspiration to watch the ones you haven't seen yet. Heat the oil in a large, wide pot over medium heat, then add the onions and sauté until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the marinated meat mixture and cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the potatoes and carrots, then add in the broth, 1 cup water, the soy sauce, and mirin. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes. This was a very easy-to-read book with a lovely choice of colours and images throughout. I loved the inclusion of quotes from the shows, and I very much appreciated that each recipe gave not only a list of ingredients but was also clear on the equipment you would need to use. I think this is my favourite cookbook of all time! I'm planning to give some of these a try, and I’m fairly confident they’ll be just as tasty as they sound! I really appreciated the author including a list of cooking tools in the beginning of the book as sometimes I’d get halfway through prepping a recipe and then realise I don’t have all the equipment I need and so I’d give up and never bother with that recipe again.And as the poster boy of the show, Souma just had to be here. Even though he still has room to improve and has not reached the very top just yet, we all know it’s coming.

Anime Chef Cookbook: 50 Iconic Dishes from Your Favorite Anime Chef Cookbook: 50 Iconic Dishes from Your Favorite

I dont exactly know how to review a cookbook. 'The Anime Chef Cookbook' displays a wide range of different meals, with 'Stuffed Hard Crab' from Toriko to 'Omurice' from Blend-S, there is plenty of meals for people to try and enjoy. The Anime Chef Cookbook is so delightful with so many beautiful illustrations! I love that almost ever recipe has a picture to go along with it. I was so surprised at the vast amount of anime meals were included. Most of the dishes I was expecting were in here, as well some I was not expecting at all! That was one of the most delightful parts for me! Of course, I was personally looking for more Studio Ghibli foods (some of the best anime foods around) but I loved it regardless. I only hope there is a part 2 and it includes even more recipes in the future.The book is full of cute-looking drawings that are really appetizing. It was just a shame that not all recipes had a picture/drawing of the food because it's easier to eat a picture with your eyes than by reading a text.
