Enter our worldwide giveaway to win one of five copies of Gohan: Everyday Japanese Cooking: Memories and Stories from My Family's Kitchen by Emiko Davies.

Emiko Davies' cookbooks are some of my favorite titles. She is an award-winning Australian-Japanese food writer, photographer and cookbook author who grew up in a diplomatic family. She spent most of her life in countries other than her own, from China to the US and now calls Italy her home.

Her books are beautifully written and photographed and encourage the reader (at least this reader) to search out a comfortable spot in order to soak up the words and images without interruption. Her latest Gohan: Everyday Japanese Cooking: Memories and Stories from My Family's Kitchen shares her favorite recipes from the kitchens of grandmothers and mothers. These are the simple, satisfying dishes she makes for her family. The book, as those Emiko has written in the past, is stunning - filled with photographs and lovely illustrations.

Japanese home cooking is not fiddly, nor time consuming. It’s quick and remarkably simple, thanks to the Japanese philosophy that fresh, seasonal food doesn’t need much to enhance its natural flavour. The recipes here reflect that statement. These are simple, yet elegant, dishes that any cook can manage. Filled with history, stories and 88 recipes, Gohan will encourage and inspire us to create these dishes for our families.
