The idea of the Washoku booklets was born during the author's years spent in Japan, where people are usually quite aware of the huge impact that food can have on our health. "Washoku - Japanese Flavours in My Kitchen" is a series of four booklets, one for each season, which tells how to take care of our health through natural and delicious food. All the recipes are based on the Japanese cuisine, added with hints borrowed from the Mediterranean Slow Food, and are all free of sugar, gluten, animal ingredients (they all are vegan friendly), milk & dairy. The dishes obtained are nutritious, healing and delicious, and all the ingredients listed are available at farmers markets and at health stores. The Chiebukuro that follow almost all the recipes are short notes that add information and curiosities about the healing properties of some of the ingredients used in each dish (Chiebukuro is a Japanese word that can be literally translated as "pouch of wisdom"). The four booklets are dedicated to all those who are looking for a "culinary" way so to take better care of their own health.
