Each recipe has been chosen for its nutritious ingredients and delightful taste, and is easy to make with basic cooking skills and no special tools. Shoji offers alternatives for any ingredients that might be difficult to find in some areas.

The author covers the entire range of sushi dishes, from nigiri-zushi (the familiar fish-atop-rice style) to maki-zushi (rolled sushi), and chirashi-zushi (scattered sushi), including the oshi-zushi style popular in the Osaka area. Also explained, in detail with many photographs, are the various styles of preparing the vegetables for use in sushi dishes, from grilling to steaming and frying. Each dish is photographed in full color.
