Caro's choice: We tested a studio Ghibli recipe -

20 Minutes

  • “Recipes from Studio Ghibli's Films” explains how to reproduce the dishes found in feature films.

  • This book edited by Ynnis offers more or less easy preparations and is a good introduction to Japanese cuisine.

Demoralized by the re-containment?

Two things are sure to boost morale.

Cook and a movie studio Ghibli of

My Neighbor Totoro

to

Kiki

through The

Spirited Away

.

The Ynnis editions had the good idea to combine the two with

The recipes of the films of the studio Ghibli

of Minh-Tri Vo and Claire-France Thévenon, to be ordered in click and collect to receive it at its release on November 18.

Our articles on Ghibli are here

The Japanese animation studio has always been able to highlight the food that the characters in its films devour.

This richly illustrated book of appetizing photos signed Apolline Cartier makes you hungry just by leafing through it.

All that's left for the foodie movie buff (or vice versa) is to try to reproduce the salty or sweet specialties from the works of Hayao Miyazaki, Goro Miyazaki, Isao Tahahata or Hiroyuki Morita.

Easy or complicated

The recipes can be relatively simple like the Vanilla

Cake

from the

Kingdom of the Cats

which we have tried or much more complex like the chocolate cake of

Kiki the little witch

whose pictures make you salivate but which looks more difficult to achieve.

The authors had the rich idea of ​​mixing typical Japanese dishes such as

Ponyo

ramen

on the cliff

that the fish granddaughter devours by making the spectator's mouth water and equally delicious international preparations such as "Croque" who howls ”from the

Howl's Moving Castle

.

In context

Each of the dishes is placed in the context of the film that inspired it with the photo of the feature film and its "reproduction" with real ingredients.

Obviously, not everyone will have shishamo smelts and dry jujubes on hand to recreate the schoolgirl's bento lunch box in

My Neighbor Totoro

.

It may also be necessary to wait until the end of confinement to obtain something to make the red bean buns in

Spirited Away

.

The ingredients of the spaghetti bolognese from

Porco Rosso

or the

more classic

burgers from

Pompoko

,

are easily found.

Studio Ghibli's films made a large audience discover and love Japan.

This book turns out to be an excellent introduction to Japanese cuisine.

The height of chic would be to watch the films again while eating the dish we have prepared.
