WHAT A SCRUMPTIOUS ABUNDANCE OF FOOD THERE IS
IN ANIME!
The care that the creators and animators put into this facet of the art form is so impressive, and one of the aspects that sets Japanese animation apart from other animated media.
The food in anime can act as a window onto Japanese culture and history, and can bring even more meaning to the scene it’s featured in. I was so intrigued by this that I wanted to explore it—and this book was developed from my perspective as an outsider looking in.
Even though I love the concept of food created specifically for a work of fiction (meaning that the food is unique to that work), the criterion that I set for this cookbook is that the food must have a real-world equivalent in order to explore my theme of learning more about Japan through the food found in anime.
The entries in this book came about in a couple of ways: seeing a dish in an anime, being intrigued, and then tracking it down in the real world, or the reverse—knowing of or happening upon a real-world food during research and then finding it in anime. Both methods were fun, as I enjoy matching things together (I spent too much time on this, perhaps; it was like a game). Delving into the cultural and historical aspects of the food and seeing how it’s woven into the background or narrative of an anime is just so interesting to me.
To create the recipes for each entry, I researched different versions of the food to find the root of the recipe, referenced the anime (as well as the manga in some cases), and came up with a version that seemed accessible. Certain ingredients were a bit tricky to find, so that also shaped some of the recipes and, in some instances, guided the decision about whether to include the food in the book.
It’s my hope that those who pick up this book, foodies and otaku alike (and the lovely people who are both), will enjoy the recipes and the stories behind them!

THE GREAT PASSAGE
SHIOZAKE Salted Salmon Fillet
SERVES 2
Majime Mitsuya loves words and their myriad meanings but has difficulty expressing himself.
A chance encounter lands him the job of his dreams: working on a new Japanese dictionary called Daitokai with a determined and tight-knit group. Majime puts all his passion and dedication into the endeavor over the years, finding love and courage along the way—sailing the vast ocean of words on the ship he’s helping to build in order to bring people closer together through understanding. When the work stretches on and he needs a moment of rest and revitalization, he goes home to a warm meal of rice, miso soup, and shiozake prepared by someone he loves.
2 6-ounce salmon fillets, or 1 salmon steak
cut in two, deboned, skin left on
1 tablespoon sake rice wine
2 teaspoons fine sea salt, or more to taste
1. Rinse the fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Coat the fillets in the sake and let sit for 5 minutes. Lightly pat the fillets with a paper towel again, then rub 1 teaspoon salt over each fillet. If you’d like a more intense salt flavor, add another half teaspoon of salt each, or to your taste. Generously wrap each fillet in paper towels and place them in a closed plastic or glass container. Place the container in the refrigerator overnight or for up to 2 days; the longer the time, the saltier the fish will be.
2. Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet or oven-safe dish with lightly scrunched-up and re-flattened aluminum foil (scrunching the foil will help the salmon not stick to it). Unwrap the fillets and gently pat off any extra moisture with a fresh paper towel. Lay the fillets, skin side up, on the foil and bake on the middle rack for 20 minutes, or until the flesh is flaky and the skin is crispy.
FOOD FACTS Shiozake (sometimes referred to as shiojake) is a traditional breakfast item in Japan, often served alongside Miso Soup (page 56), Rice (page 52), Tamagoyaki (page 61), and pickle and vegetable side dishes. It’s refreshing with a lemon wedge or a little mound of daikon oroshi (finely grated daikon radish). The salmon can also be flaked apart and used as an Onigiri filling (page 62), or as a topping for rice dishes such as a donburi or Chazuke (page 33).
Another common and less time-consuming way that salmon is prepared in Japan is to coat the salmon in sake and let it sit for
5 minutes (as in this recipe), and then, after patting the fish dry with a paper towel, lightly salt the fillets and let them sit for only 5 minutes. Pat off the resulting moisture with another paper towel. Place the fish on an oiled rack over a tray of water and broil, skin side up, for 10 minutes, then flip and cook for another 5 minutes. Because this way is quicker, the salt doesn’t permeate the fish as much.
ANIME FACTS “Daitokai” translates to “the great
passage.” “Passage” could mean a segment of writing, a reference to traveling, a place to travel through, or even the sliding by of time. All of these are applicable to the story. The Great Passage anime is an adaptation of the book Fune wo amu by Shion Miura, published in 2011. The title translates to “knitting the boat,” which is very apt. The award-winning book was first adapted into
a live-action film (which also won many awards) and eventually the anime series The Great Passage. Miura is also the author of Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru, which was adapted into a live-action film and the inspiring anime series Run with the Wind.
