"“Culinary content creator” Rie McClenny, born in Hiroshima, bursts off the screen with this approachable debut cookbook. With a restrained palette of Asian grocery store essentials (mirin, kombu, instant dashi, panko), McClenny walks you through a vast array of fast Japanese homestyle dishes rarely seen on a takeout menu: Chicken-Tofu Tsukune (meatballs), Miso Cod with Swiss Chard, Rib-Eye Steak with Shoyu-Garlic Sauce (and garlic chips I’d eat by the fistful given half a chance). You don’t have to go for the Tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) in the special pan; just crack an Asahi, start the rice cooker, and you’re off."
