The Okie Mochi Cookbook: a book of family feasts

This cookbook is a compilation of family recipes, and its humorous name is derived from a delicious blend of culinary difference that comes from multiethnic diversity: Japanese and Southern Americana. We are a family of food enthusiasts, and this book is a roadmap to the edible highlights that have graced our dining tables over the years. From fried okra to inari sushi, these meals have filled our bellies and touched our hearts. In this book, we honor our distinctive culinary heritage, we remember the generations past who fed us our history, and we pass on to the generations to come a taste of that history.
