Japanese Cuisine: Tradition and Modern Adaptations

thru December 2006
Asia Collection
Fourth floor, Hamilton Library

When many Americans think of Japanese food, they think sushi. But Japanese cuisine encompasses so much more with an ever-present emphasis on freshness, seasonality and texture. Also of utmost importance is aesthetic appeal, which extends to implements, utensils and the packaging of food.

This display offers a small glimpse into the wonderful world of Japanese cuisine, focusing on some of its traditional foods and implements, its modern counterparts and international influences. Japanese cuisine is not static and continues to incorporate ingredients and techniques from other cuisines that make the food oishii (delicious)!!!"
