Robata by Silla Bjerrum is a free NetGalley ebook that I read in late May。Chapters on cuts and whole fish, skewered items, appetizers, sides, desserts, and drinks, as well as assembling and fueling a grill, using Japanese-sourced ingredients with fresh and inviting, yet simple plating and photography。  My favorite recipes are for cured and robata sea trout, lobster with yuzu drizzle, charred leeks with spicy dip (really a lot like grilled green onions at a taco stand), asparagus wrapped in beef  Robata by Silla Bjerrum is a free NetGalley ebook that I read in late May。Chapters on cuts and whole fish, skewered items, appetizers, sides, desserts, and drinks, as well as assembling and fueling a grill, using Japanese-sourced ingredients with fresh and inviting, yet simple plating and photography。  My favorite recipes are for cured and robata sea trout, lobster with yuzu drizzle, charred leeks with spicy dip (really a lot like grilled green onions at a taco stand), asparagus wrapped in beef tskune, Japanese mountain rice, and aonori flatbread。 。。。more

A delicious Japanese cookbook, explaining the Robata style of fire-side cooking。 The recipes looked mouth watering, and as soon as I have a backyard to cook in, I will certainly be buying myself a copy of this book in print, and I will be experimenting with these recipes all the time。 I have received a much appreciated digital copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review。

Translated as “fireside cooking”, Robata is a Japanese style of grilling food。 It pairs well with sushi to create the perfect combination of flavors and works well as a shared, communal food。In the introduction, the author describes the History Of Robata, How To Cook Robata, Setting Up The Grill, even How To Create Your Own Robata Grill。 Once your grill is set up you will want to review the tools recommended。The key Japanese ingredients which will be used for the recipes are described, complete Translated as “fireside cooking”, Robata is a Japanese style of grilling food。 It pairs well with sushi to create the perfect combination of flavors and works well as a shared, communal food。In the introduction, the author describes the History Of Robata, How To Cook Robata, Setting Up The Grill, even How To Create Your Own Robata Grill。 Once your grill is set up you will want to review the tools recommended。The key Japanese ingredients which will be used for the recipes are described, complete with pictures of many。 The introduction also includes information on sourcing salmon sauces, cooking times etc。The final section in the introduction covers How To Enjoy The Robata Meal。 It gives you an overview of both the old-school and new modern Robata-styles。The recipe categories cover:Fish RobataOther RobataClassic YakitoriOther SkewersNipplesSalads And SidesDesserts And DrinksEach recipe category begins with a brief description of the type of food found within。 There are lots of pictures throughout the book, most of them with the label next to the dish complete with recipe name and page number。 This will make it much easier to find the dish that visually appeals to you。The recipes themselves each include a description and serving size。 Most of the serving sizes mention the number of persons it makes as a main dish, as well as the number of dishes which should be included if it was served Robata style。An Amazing Array Of TemptationThe glorious photography throughout the book will have you rushing to your grill in no time。 The sheer variety of selection and unique flavor combinations mean nearly everyone will find something they absolutely love in this collection。I must admit I cannot grill to save my life, nor can I say I’ve had much success with Japanese food in the past。 That said, however, I find myself itching to try many of these recipes。See the full review and the recipe for Asparagus Namban at The RecipesNow!

Robata is a stunningly beautiful cookbook。 As a visual treat alone, Bjerrum’s book is delicious。 After a detailed dive into the mechanics of Robata grilling, Bjerrum lays out the basic ingredients that are needed for this style of cooking。 I’ll admit that the discussion of charcoal was a bit intimidating, but I was encouraged by the claim that the recipes will be delicious, even if we use more conventional grilling equpment。 While the other ingredients can be somewhat harder to find, a well-stoc Robata is a stunningly beautiful cookbook。 As a visual treat alone, Bjerrum’s book is delicious。 After a detailed dive into the mechanics of Robata grilling, Bjerrum lays out the basic ingredients that are needed for this style of cooking。 I’ll admit that the discussion of charcoal was a bit intimidating, but I was encouraged by the claim that the recipes will be delicious, even if we use more conventional grilling equpment。 While the other ingredients can be somewhat harder to find, a well-stocked Japanese grocer will set you up。If you are lucky enough to be able to source fresh fish, that chapter, with its inventive side dishes, is well worth the price of admission。 I’ve tried only a few dishes from this cookbook (the Sea Bream Filet was terrific, and the side pickles a treat), but very much look forward to sampling more extensively。 This is a cookbook to use, not just to read。 。。。more
