Description
Elizabeth Andoh was born and raised in America and is not ethnically Japanese, but Japan has been her home for more than four decades. She received her formal culinary training from the Yanagihara School of Traditional Japanese Cuisine in Tokyo. In 1972, she began her own culinary arts program, A Taste of Culture, that combines spicy tidbits of food lore with practical tips and skill-building lessons on how to prepare Japanese food.
Andoh lectures internationally on Japanese food and culture, and is the author of six books on Japanese cooking, including two IACP award-winners, An Ocean of Flavor (Morrow, 1988) and Washoku (Ten Speed, 2005). She was Gourmet's Japan correspondent for more than three decades and was a regular contributor to the New York Times travel section for many years.

Episode 7: An American Sake Samurai: Today on Japan Eats, Akiko is sitting down with one of only 48 Sake Samurais in the world as honored by the Japan Sake Brewers Association - Roger Dagorn. Also a noted Master Sommelier, Roger shares how he came around to the fascinating world of distinguished beverages as well as details on how he analyzes and pairs all types of food with various sakes plus relays how sake is typically produced. After the break, Roger describes the induction ceremony associated with the Sake Samurai, the importance of educating about sake, and his tips for pairing sakes with meals. This program was brought to you by The International Culinary Center. Every time I taste sake, I think about what I can pair it with food... Sake can be a food, it is meant to be consumed with food. [8:00] Sometimes with age they can take on strong aromas of smokiness and gaminess... Some people even compare them to scotch sometimes without the high alcohol. [31:00] --Roger Dagorn on Japa by Japan Eats!
