About the book

Let cooking be an experience

This isn’t like any cookbook you’ve used before. Authentically Japanese and backed by a hip-hop soundtrack, this is a sensory experience. 

Takako Tamura is a Japanese-Australian chef known for blending traditional Japanese flavours with contemporary seasonal cooking, culture, music, and art. 

In these pages you will find mouth-watering recipes – think zingy yuzu oil and deliciously umami nori dressing – each accompanied by original beats by Japanese composer Moyou (scannable via QR code). Sauces have never sounded so good.  

Whether you are a novice in the kitchen or an everyday chef, your experience of cooking – and eating – will be forever elevated. 

Sauces is a testament that food can connect people across cultures. 

Takako Tamura is a Japanese chef and restauranteur based in Melbourne, known for blending traditional 

Japanese flavours with a contemporary, community-focused approach. She founded Tamura Sake Bar in Fitzroy, followed by izakaya Tamura Sho-Ten, a space where seasonal cooking, sake, culture, music and art intersect, reflecting her belief that food can connect people across cultures.
