About me
Sonoko is a cook, teacher, and author of Wafu Cooking, Japanese Home Cooking, Mai and The Missing Melon, Rice Craft, and The Poetical Pursuit of Food. She gives workshops from her home and is known to fill her suitcase with flour and teach workshops wherever she is wanted. She assisted in restoring the local grain movement in Southern California (now called the Tehachapi Grain Project) with a heritage seed donation from Anson Mills.

Her cooking videos can be seen on the Food Network and Milk Street.
