You'll find maki sushi in many supermarkets and restaurants across Japan, but even so, these classic sushi rolls remain a staple of Japanese home cooking, and for good reason. Flavorful and versatile, they are healthy and simple to make — with the right tips and tricks. In this experience, a local host and certified food coordinator will teach you how to roll maki like a pro and share invaluable tips for Japanese home cooking.
