After working hard for the past several months, I’m extremely happy to announce that my first eBook, Just One Cookbook – Essential Japanese Recipes is here!

Just One Cookbook - Essential Japanese Recipes cookbook is available for sale

After all, Just One Cookbook is no longer one cookbook! 🙂

During the past 3 years of blogging, I’ve received many interests and inquiries for my cookbook from JOC readers. My reply has always been, “No, I do not have published cookbooks, just the blog to keep all the recipes I love.”

However, with the increasing requests for a cookbook, you’ve convinced me! I realized many of my readers are interested in cooking Japanese food, but when you come to my site it’s not very clear where to start.

So I’ve selected 33 easy and simple recipes that my family, JOC readers, and I love most from Just One Cookbook.

Just One Cookbook Essential Japanese Recipes (e-Book)

This cookbook has over 90 pages of recipes and instructions for appetizers, side dishes, main dishes, rice & noodles, and dessert, which include 12 pages of Japanese cooking basics and pantry items.

Here are a few snapshots from the book:

Congrats on the eBook! I was wondering how long it’d take you to produce your own book. 😉 Hope you sell a ton!

Congratulations, this looks great. How lovely to give some of the money to charity too.

Congratulations!

FYI – I tried to get your e-book on iBook, but did not see it listed.

Love your recipes and look forward to seeing the collection!

YAY!!! I knew you would finally put an ebook together! So happy for you and can’t wait to read it!

Congratulations on the ebook! This is a big step! The design of the book looks beautiful. Great job! 🙂

Congratulations, Nami! It looks beautiful. By now, your blog is an indispensable resource in my kitchen… even though I grew up with Japanese food I consult it regularly for cooking times and inspiration. And I so admire your decision to donate 20 percent to Samaritan’s Purse. Wishing you the best this holiday.

Nami, that’s fantastic news! Congratulations on finishing your beautiful cookbook. I also admire your generous spirit, donating some of the proceeds to charity. xo

P.S. Nami, just tried to purchase your e-cookbook to send as a gift to somebody else, but ended up downloading it to myself… I’m sure it was subliminal thinking, lol! 😉 Your cookbook is absolutely BEAUTIFUL — photos, recipes, family history –all of it! (Thank you.) I’ll figure out how to send it someone else later… right now I’m too busy drooling over the future meals in my kitchen. xo

Nami, thank you so much for your offers to help… I think I have it figured it out now. 😉 Also, I’m truly enjoying delving into your cookbook. I’m glad I have my own copy!

Congratz, Nami! You are amazing and such an inspiring person.

Awesome! Congratulations.

Cheers,

Rosa

Congratulations Nami! My family loved your recipes and everything to do with Japanese food! Take care from my family to yours….

I have been subscribed to the newsletter

Hi Beverli, Thank you very much for subscribing to Nami’s newsletter! We hope you enjoy many dishes from our website!

Congratulations!!! I adore Japanese food, and your website has been a blessing, and so much fun too. I am like a student of this cuisine – soaking up the info, making myself familiar with the names – some of them still very difficult and I get confused easily – but it’s getting better.

Once, long ago, I told you that if you ever wrote a cookbook, I will be the first one to buy. I don’t know if I am the first one, but I have bought it, and I already love what’s in there. I am yet to go through it all, but I love the pantry basics.

Wishing you the very best, and I hope all your endeavors are super successful 🙂

Can I send it to my kindle?

Wow!! Congratulations Nami!! You have accomplished a major goal that all of us food bloggers have. Yay!! 🙂 I looks beautiful. 🙂

Congrats! You’re truly an inspiring entrepreneur! 🙂 I will sure to check out your e-book.

congratulations Nami!! Very good news. I had such a fascinating time in Japan – even saw the BR you hand out in!! Just loved Japan – fascinating and at times challenging!! Brilliant food, too!

Congratulation for your new & first cookbook!

I bought e cookbook but dun received anything

I am Canadian, is the cost of your cookbook American dollars or $CAD?

Hi Douglas,
Thank you very much for your interest in Just One Cookbook eBook!
We are based in the United State. Therefore, the eBook price is the US dollar.🙂

I would love a cookbook in paper. It would make wonderful gifts! It wouldn’t be hard for you to be published. When it is available sign me up!

Ditto. the paperback would be great. Won’t be able to give it as a gift if they don’t access to a computer. (They’re out there…)
