***Basic Japanese Home Cooking***
Wed, Julyl 14, 6:30pm-9pm
Fee: $65

Learn basics of Japanese home cooking, such as how to cook rice, making dashi (soup stock) and miso soup, about necessary seasonings and common Japanese food products. We'll prepare a savory complete Japanese meal with fish and vegetables.

Cooking with soy food can be absolutely effortless.  It's great food for even those of you who are clueless in kitchen - you don't even need a real knife to cut a tofu! You'll be introduced to all kinds of tofu and other soy food products, and learn to make delicious and easy soy dishes.

***Sushi Master***
Wed, August 4, 6:30pm-9pm
Wed, August 18, 6:30pm-9pm

Fee: $65

Learn how to cook sushi rice (the most important part of sushi!), prepare ingredients, and make your own sushi rolls like California rolls, tuna rolls, hand rolls, or veggie rolls of your choice.  You'll go home armed with the sushi rolling mat, and become your own sushi chef in your kitchen. Our most popular class- great to attend with friends and family.

Traditional Japanese desserts are low or no fat, and they are even healthy. Making rice desserts like mochi and dango are also very easy and fun, like playing with Play-Doh.  I may also reveal secrets of tofu pudding…

Let's make fun and delicious origiri (rice balls) to take to work or picnic. We'll also do simple dishes great for packing up in a lunch box. For added bonus, I'll show you how to do a quick "Chara-ben," or cute character bento boxes to impress your friends or family.

We certainly love noodles: Ramen, Udon, Soba, Somen, In a big bowl of soup, stir-fried, or just dipping in a cold sauce. They are all quick and easy one dish meal. Cold noodles are ‘must-learn’ to survive steamy hot New York summer! .
