Comments:
„I love this book. It‘s not just that Michio has participated in it. It’s also because a woman who has real experience in day-to-day macrobiotic cooking and has raised a child as well as taught macrobiotics to large numbers of people wrote it. The book very clearly addresses what macrobiotics is and how to bring these ideas to everyday life.“

“I can‘t imagine two people more qualified to write The Macrobiotic Kitchen in Ten Easy Steps than Michio and Gabriele Kushi. Michio is the master teacher who brought macrobiotics to the West more than 40 years ago. He has been lecturing and consulting ever since. Gabriele, his daughter-in-law, brings a global perspective and timeless aesthetic that is truly unique. Together they cook up a beautiful, healthy cuisine. Bon appetit!”

„The Macrobiotic Kitchen in Ten Easy Steps by Gabriele Kushi and Michio Kushi is a fundamental book to anyone who wishes to start a macrobiotic or vegetarian diet or simply start to eat in a more conscious way. Actually, even people who have been macrobiotic or vegetarian for a long time will have a lot to learn from this wonderful book. In its over 200 pages, the authors will guide you through all the steps necessary to master the kitchen, from your posture and attitude when you cook to how to choose healthy ingredients for a balanced menu. In all my years of practice I have seen many cookbooks and this is without any doubt one of the more complete and clear you can find. You can‘t miss it.“
