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!
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:

[…] all kind of interesting recipes from the different cultures and destinations. She published the Just OneCookBook, check it […]
Hello! I was wondering if you had any plans to publish this book in paper form? I would love to be able to consult on the go and call me old fashioned, but it doesn’t feel the same on a kindle.
Hello Fannie! Thank you so much for your kind request. I do not have a plan to publish this book in paper form even though we receive some requests… The recipes in this ebook are already on the blog FOR FREE, and I do not want to charge people more money than $9 for a paperback… 🙂 I’m old fashion too, so I completely understand your request. Maybe one day, I may have a chance to work on a cookbook… 🙂
Hello Nami,
Very appreciated get to know your blog. I am from Hong Kong and love Japanese food.
I just purchased your ebook but having trouble to download, would you please send me copy? I tried download Abode Digital Editions but still find not easy to read your book, would you please help?
Below is my purchased detail.
Thanks very much.
Regards,
Annie
Hi Annie! Thank you for purchasing my e-Book. I checked my record but can’t find your email. I’ll send you email shortly. 🙂
Hi Nami!
I want to buy 4 copies of your cookbook but the computer won’t let me!!
How do I proceed?
Kathi
Hi Kathi! Yeah it doesn’t allow the option. I’ll email you soon. 🙂
I ordered the cookbook on August 13, 2018 and would like to know when I should be receiving it.
Hi Cathy! Just in case… this is e-Book (not actual book) – some people didn’t notice before purchasing so I wanted to mention that first. Once you purchase it, the download link is sent automatically to the same email address (could be your Paypal account if it’s different from email address you’re using). A few readers told me they found the email in the junk mail folder. I can look up your record and will resend the download link manually. If you’re not receiving it in next 15 minutes, could you please let me know? We can use different method to send the pdf file. I apologize for the inconvenience, Cathy!
Hi! I love all your yummy recipes, and would really like to buy your book, but PayPal is bugging me to create an account (and insists that my email is already linked to an account, probably from a past “guest” purchase…) I really don’t want the headache to get through all that nonsense, is there another way to download the e-book?
Thanks!
Hi Valerie! Thank you so much for your kind words! Actually, you do not need Paypal account to buy my e-Book if you use credit card payment option. You will see a botton that says “Pay with Debit or Credit Card”.
that option outside of the paypal area…. which goes to a guest checkout screen. There is no need to create an account at all. Hope this helps… We don’t have other methods of accepting payment. I am sorry for the inconvenience this may caused you…
Hi Nami and family. I haven’t yet tried any of your recipes, but I feel at home here. ????. I’m curious. How many followers do you have?
Hi Robyn! Thank you for visiting my site! I’m glad you like my website. 🙂 Hmm which followers you’re talking about? Social media, blog visitors…
I would like to make Dragon Rolls. I cannot find a description for the ingredient Tobiko. Can you please define it for me?
HI Juliette! It’s Japanese word for frying fish roe.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobiko
Nami San. Did you have a recipe for Bento?
Hi June! Do you mean in the e-book? No. But all my bento recipes are here:
https://www.justonecookbook.com/tags/bento/
I just reviewed your book and I am hoping to make my own stock for shoyu ramen. I think I will try dashii first..maybe that is what I am looking for. I make my own gyoza, tonkatsu, and tempura (store mix). I lived in Tokyo for several years in my younger days and miss the noodles. I live in the desert mountains of Arizona and must travel to Phoenix to buy my ingredients. However I might try to use Amazon! Thank you for your cookbook!
Hi Scott! We just came back from Utah and Arizona (visited Antelope Canyon!). I can imagine it’s not easy to get Japanese ingredients there but I’m so happy to see you still try making Japanese food!!!
Ramen is originated in China, so the soup base is always chicken or pork, but Japanese mix in dashi to make ramen soup. If you only make the soup with dashi, it becomes more like soba/udon noodle soup. So I recommend adding some savory chicken/pork bone broth. 🙂 Good luck!
how much is the cookbook.thanks
Hello Clemens! It’s $9 (20% goes to charity – see details above). 🙂
I want to give your E Book Cookbook as a gift. How can I process? Please advise. Thank you. Email: julienoba@me.com TY
Hi JNO! Thank you for your interest. The link for downloading a copy of my ebook goes straight to the buyer’s email. You can forward the link OR you can download yourself first and give the copy to your friend. 🙂
Hafa Adai Namiko-san,
I was wondering if you have a recipe for making takuan. I made it once and it turned out great but I combined 3 recipes. And when I tried again, it didn’t taste as good as the first time. I like the Japanese style takuan and not the other kind. Japanese use sugar.
Thank you for sharing all your wonderful recipes.
Hi Florence! I don’t have the recipe for takuan (yet). I’ll put it on my list. Thank you for your request!
Hi Nami, do you have any plans to publish a hard copy of your cookbook? I would love to have a physical copy to use in the kitchen so I don’t make a mess of my tablet while cooking, but I feel bad just going through and printing your entire collection of recipes straight from your site without compensating you in some way…
Hi Alex! Thank you for asking, and I’m happy to hear you’re interested in the cookbook. I am thinking about it – and should start the process already… but have been busy focusing on YouTube where we think it’s important for the future of our business. But yes, I’m thinking about it, and hopefully I can finish by 2020…. 🙂
If you don’t mind, you can use the print function and print out – I’m more than happy if you enjoy my recipes and I’d like you to come back for more. The only thing I want to say is that I constantly go back to my own recipes to make and test to make sure the recipe works. So you should get updated version when you’re ready to cook. I update my instructions or ingredient amount slightly if it’s not clear or needs to change for better. 🙂
Is there any kind of list of all your recipes? I check Facebook & your e-mails but I don’t think I get all of them. Let me know please. Your Crockpot wasn’t there a certain one you recommend?
Hi Miles! All my recipes can be found in “Recipes” in Navigation. Facebook is definitely not a good place to “browse” and see all the choices. You can use a filter on the right to narrow down based on the dish you’re looking for.
I do not own a crockpot. I use Instant Pot which can do both pressure cooker and slow cooker. 🙂
I would love to learn Japanese cuisine and need a cookbook where I can follow. And I found your recipe easy to follow. How could I get one.
Hi Marites! I only have eCookbook and do not sell a physical cookbook. If you’re interested in the ebook, please read this post carefully before purchasing it. Thank you!! 🙂
