America's Test Kitchen Radio

Here in America, we cook to eat. In Japan cooking is both a culinary philosophy and a set of practical guidelines for preparing food, many traditions merge Buddhist philosophy with the culinary arts: Washoku is an integrated approach to achieving nutritional balance and aesthetic harmony at table Kansha means appreciation, and one way of demonstrating it in the kitchen and at table is to avoid waste. These two Japanese traditions are explored in this week's America's Test Kitchen in a conversation with Elizabeth Andoh, the leading English language authority on Japanese cooking. They discuss her deeply rooted Buddhist philosophy in the kitchen, and explore the rhythm, the energy, the resourcefulness, and the culinary techniques of Japan.
