The enchanted kitchen, a recipe book taken from the films of the Japanese animation master Hayao Miyazaki
Fans of Hayao Miyazaki's films will surely have noticed how important and central food is within the masterpieces of the Japanese animation master. Now many recipes from Miyazaki's feature films have been wrapped up in a very special book.
Let's talk about "The enchanted kitchen", published by Trenta Editore, a real treat for lovers of Miyazaki's works who may want to know new details and curiosities of the films, also experimenting with some recipes present in them.
If there is one thing that is never lacking in the Japanese master's masterpieces, it is the relationship between the characters and the food. The world of gastronomy and cinema are always closely linked, even if the culinary aspect has often been underestimated until now.
Putting these two aspects of Miyazaki's work together is a winning idea. This book, the work of Silvia Casini, Raffaella Fenoglio and Francesco Pasqua, aims to lead the reader to the discovery of an unprecedented interpretation of Miyazaki's films, inviting everyone to try the recipes drawn from his masterpieces.
And this is not the classic recipe book, there are no typical photos of these publications, but illustrations at the beginning of the chapter that obviously recall the magical and surreal world of the Japanese master. The format of the book, small and easy to leaf through, is not surprisingly reminiscent of manga.

Inside "The enchanted kitchen" for each film the most iconic recipes are indicated, many also vegetarian or vegan (or revisited in a vegetable version) and all very simple to make.
We were so enthusiastic about the idea that we have decided to reveal, in some future articles and with the collaboration of the publishing house Trenta Editore, 5 preview recipes contained in the book, which we recommend that you buy in bookstores or online anyway.
So get ready to experience Kiki's Dorayaki - Home delivery, the Siberia cake from Rising the wind or the Stuffed Anpan or the Onigiri from The Enchanted City, the Miso soup of Princess Mononoke and much more.
