Celebrating the Launch of 'Shorter Official Recipes' by Asken

Asken, the leading AI meal management app developer with over 12 million members, proudly announces the release of its third official recipe book, 'Shorter Official Recipes', published by Wani Books. Scheduled to hit bookstores and electronic platforms nationwide on May 16, 2025, this latest installment aims at simplifying healthy eating with rapid, nutritious recipes. Early reviews have propelled it to the top of Amazon's rankings in three categories: Specialty Cooking, Health Methods, and Dietary Therapy.

The 'Shorter Official Recipes' book series has broken records with total sales exceeding 100,000 copies, making it a remarkable achievement for Wani Books. This latest title boasts an impressive repertoire of 28 recipes that support calorie control and nutritious eating in a convenient, accessible format.

A Focus on Simplicity and Nutritious Eating

Time is often a luxury in our fast-paced lives. Recognizing this, the new recipe book is designed to ensure efficient meal preparation without sacrificing health. Most recipes can be completed in three simple steps, making healthy meal preparation an achievable goal for anyone, even on the busiest days. The cookbook emphasizes using ingredients that are easily findable at local grocery stores, including versatile staples like canned goods and frozen vegetables.

To give readers a taste of the new book's offerings, Wani Books is launching two exciting campaigns:

An Innovative Approach to Meal Planning

The 'Shorter Official Recipes' keeps calorie intake manageable, aiming to maintain each meal around 500 calories. The book's structure aligns with the recommendations of Japan’s 2025 Dietary Guidelines, making it suitable for adults striving to maintain a daily intake of approximately 1,500 to 1,750 calories—allowing room for healthy snacks.

Each recipe is crafted to balance major nutrients including proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. The expertise of Asken's registered dietitians ensures adequate intake of iron, dietary fiber, and calcium, especially prevalent in traditional Japanese meals. Furthermore, each recipe is designed to incorporate 150 grams of vegetables, contributing to the daily target of 350 grams as suggested by health authorities.

A New Era of Healthy Eating

There’s a common misconception that dieting must be synonymous with deprivation. However, 'Shorter Official Recipes' challenges this notion by providing meals that are flavorful and satisfying. The book recognizes that enjoyment is crucial in dietary changes, and aims to help readers embrace healthy food choices joyfully.

Mikiko Michie, a registered dietitian and supervising editor for the book, emphasizes the importance of practical, balanced meals that anyone can prepare. In her words, “This cookbook was created for those who desire a healthy lifestyle without the burdensome complexity of meal prep.”
