JOC is 12 Years Old!
January 1st is also Just One Cookbook’s birthday and this year, we’re celebrating its 12th year!
Over the past 11 years, we have truly loved the connections we have made with all of our readers across the US and around the globe. Thank you so much for your support, and for choosing my recipes as your source and inspiration for cooking Japanese food at home.
To celebrate the milestone, we’re hosting a worldwide giveaway for all of our readers.
Worldwide Giveaway Prizes (Total 10 Winners)
The 1st Prize (1 winner)

I love all of Kikuichi knives, but this Kikuichi Nickel Warikomi Damascus 210mm Gyuto is a stunner! It has thin and agile 45-layer Damascus blades, with an edge of AUS10, one of the finest modern Japanese blades available. Look at the gorgeous handlebar made with a rosewood handle and ebony ferrule! This knife is a showpiece, but trust me, you’re going to love it for everyday cooking.
The 2nd Prize (2 winners)

This Zojirushi Umami Micom Rice Cooker & Warmer (5.5-Cup) is absolutely one of the must-have kitchen gadgets I can’t live without. I use it almost every day to cook the perfect rice for my family.
The 3rd Prize (2 winners)

Many of my recent tableware pieces that you see on the blog are from Musubi Kiln. It is my go-to store for high-quality, handmade Japanese tableware and dinnerware. Have fun shopping with this Musubi Kiln 10,000 yen Gift Card!
The 4th Prize (1 winner)

I love using this beautiful Hario Rice Cooker Clay Pot (GohanGama) for making hot pot dishes for my family, but it is also a versatile cookware for cooking rice and veggies.
The 5th Prize (5 winners)

JOC Merch features different styles of our t-shirts and sweatshirts. You get to pick the style you like.
