About the Author

Yuto Omura is the founder of Sudachi, a contemporary Japanese recipe blog that focuses on introducing how to make both homestyle and restaurant-quality Japanese dishes using both authentic and accessible ingredients. After spending several years in the UK, he began to try to recreate the flavors of home using local ingredients. Although challenging at first, this experience helped him realize that Japanese food can be created anywhere in the world, and he became inspired to share this with others through sudachirecipes.com.
