Katakuri flour, kudzu flour, rice powder, soba flour, wheat flour
Chapters are organized according to cooking techniques: fried foods, steamed foods, and grilled foods, for example, and not according to particular ingredients (e.g., chicken or beef) as are western cookbooks.
Many imported foods are made suitable for the Japanese palette by reducing the amount of spice used or changing a part of a recipe (Korean kimchi, originally fermented, was instead pickled minus fermented shrimp).

 History of Japanese cuisine
In the sixteenth century the Portuguese, followed by the Dutch, began to introduce foods that were adopted by the Japanese and later became cultural symbols.
As a result, sushi became a popular snack food, combining fish with the traditional staple food, rice.
Fried foods such as tempura might seem to be very un-Japanese as a lack of meat and dairy products in the Japanese diet meant that oil was not commonly used for cooking.

This is called "fusion" food, where seemingly incompatible foods are fused together, creating an explosion that people from outside of the country of the food's origin find pleasing but which the people from the country of origin find appalling.
Some food is just too small to be taken seriously by foreigners used to large thick steaks and mammoth baked potatoes.
