Nobu's Vegetarian Cookbook

This book was created by chef and restaurateur Matsuhisa Nobuyuki, known as Nobu. It presents more than seventy recipes in which vegetables, often treated as side dishes, take centre stage, alongside a selection of desserts and beverages.

It also introduces techniques to enhance the natural flavours of vegetables through Japanese ingredients, flavours and seasonings, including wasabi, umami (savoury taste), yuba (tofu skin), miso, and sake. The photography contributes to the book’s visual appeal, making it as engaging to browse as it is to cook from.

Matsuhisa Nobuyuki is the chef-proprietor of Nobu and Matsuhisa restaurants and hotels located across five continents.

After seven years of training at the sushi restaurant Matsuei in Tokyo, he moved to Peru at the age of 24 to open his own restaurant. Following a period in Alaska, he established Matsuhisa in Los Angeles in 1987 and Nobu in New York in 1994.
