During this hands-on Japanese cooking class, you’ll learn how to make…


Maki (Rolled) Sushi: Maki sushi is a quintessential Japanese dish where vinegared rice, fresh fish or veggies, and nori seaweed are expertly rolled into bite-sized delights. Discover how to perfectly season the rice, select fresh ingredients, and master the maki sushi roll.


Savory Egg Custard (Chawanmushi): Delve into the subtleties of chawanmushi, a velvety, savory custard dish. Discover the secrets behind achieving the smooth texture and the balance of flavors in this Japanese comfort food.


Miso Soup: Learn how to make the foundation of many Japanese meals, blending the umami richness of miso paste with the delicate flavors of dashi stock. It's all about striking the right balance of salty, savory, and comforting.


Dashi Stock: Unlock the secret ingredient that forms the backbone of Japanese cooking—dashi stock. Crafted from bonito flakes and kelp, it infuses dishes with that unmistakable umami depth. You'll master the art of creating dashi from scratch.


White Sesame Pudding: Cap off your culinary adventure with a sweet treat! White sesame pudding offers a delightful, nutty twist on traditional desserts. Discover how to create this creamy and fragrant finale for your Japanese feast.
