Teishoku is a traditional Japanese set meal that brings a harmonious balance of flavors and nutrition, typically consisting of a main dish, side dishes, rice, pickles, and soup. These meals not only offer a delightful taste experience but also provide a well-rounded intake of nutrients. Our vegetarian versions capture the essence of this traditional arrangement while catering to plant-based dietary preferences.
Our classes are designed to immerse you in the art of preparing delicious and aesthetically pleasing vegetarian Teishoku. You will learn to create dishes that honor Japanese culinary principles of balance and seasonality, using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. From mastering the art of a perfectly cooked bowl of rice to preparing savory miso soup and perfectly seasoned vegetable dishes, these classes are perfect for both beginners and seasoned home cooks looking to expand their culinary skills.
Under the guidance of experienced instructors, you will discover the subtleties of flavoring agents, the importance of texture, and the visual presentation that defines Japanese cuisine. Whether you are a dedicated vegetarian or simply exploring meatless meal options, these classes offer valuable insights into a healthy and flavorful approach to cooking.
