Excerpt from La Russie Juive
Le gros du public n'aime guère à ap prendre, craint d'avoir à s'étonner sans comprendre, et hésite paresseusement de vant les aridités d'une étude sérieuse. Or, l'étude de la Question juive implique un appel aux forces de la méditation et du calcul.

Summary
Jun Tanaka presented a TV series called 'Cooking It' in which he took on complete novices and taught them how to cook. This inspired him to write Simple to Spectacular to provide recipes for inexperienced cooks that will build their confidence and teach them basic skills. He shows how simple recipes can then be transformed into spectacular versions with a few simple steps. As Jun says "I want to show that cooking, even to a refined level, is something anyone can do. It's all about building confidence."
