I have to say that I have a very low impression of this book. It is sometimes hard to see how the contents of successive pages are linked (e.g., in the breakfast category, we go from dashi to different types of miso to suggested combinations of the various misos with solids, but you only see that this all leads to miso soup if you look at the tiny introductory print. I was going to say that this was fine print, and that it was only in such notes, but then I realized that all print except the headers are in surprisingly small print, which is not an intelligent choice for such a book, to say the least. One usually does not have a cookbook at extremely close hand when cooking, but this would require the cook repeatedly to either lean down to peer at the recipes or pick the book up and hold it close to one’s eyes. Really! And the margins are quite unnecessarily HUGE! Surely an intelligent book designer would have specified a smaller margin and larger type. And if the designer failed in this regard, surely someone else should have caught this!
Another design deficit: it is often not immediately apparent which ingredients go with which part of the recipe. (For example, what is part of the sauce?) In this cookbook, often one can only solve this by reading the prose. Note that I don’t think I have EVER felt the need to criticize the design of a cookbook before. This book is an exception to that.
The awful design of this cookbook is not its only deficit. Another one is that the title really doesn’t match the content. It seems to me that cult implies secret or, at the very least, somehow special. However, the recipes in this book are ubiquitous. There is nothing special about this book. In fact, I got this book in haste (I wanted to support a local bookstore, and it was closing for the night) and feel like I was misled by that title.
It would be nice if one could issue ZERO stars or negative stars. As it is, I think if you don't check one star, it just looks like you haven't rated the book. This is the ONLY reason why I give this cookbook one star. (
