A rest from the usual political/religious mayhem for both of you readers at the end of a tough week for all three of us.
I was intrigued by "Koyo Cooking", initially due to some very nice looking pictures of food on the blog. Interestingly, the blogger lives in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Unfortunately, I have tried every encoding setting for Unicode, Japanese characters, and indeed other south-east-Asian encodings and I can't get anything to display from this site other than the following text:
Certainly I must agree with that description of sushi - can be a bit pricey though. Especially when you walk into Yo! Sushi and half an hour later there's a pile of little plates with coloured rims next to you, and you can't walk...

More than Excellent!
Anyway I will check out that 1987 journal article sometime. Even if I could get the page to display properly, assuming it's in Japanese I wouldn't be able to read it, but looks like a good scene anyway. The Guardian story mentioned is an important one which I was going to feature on the blog last week but it was one of the several dozen things I forgot to do - basically the supermarkets have been trying to lower the standards for organic food so they can produce it more cheaply, and fleece the unsuspecting consumer, who thinks they are still buying top-notch nosh. The standard corporate skullduggery - full story on the Guardian website.
Anyway, if anyone does manage to translate the recipes on this blog and they seem nice, do let me know!
