***Basic Japanese Home Cooking***
Sunday, January 3, 12pm-2:30pm
Saturday, January 30, 12pm-2:30pm
Fee: $60

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***
Saturday, December 19, 12pm-2:30pm
Sunday, December 27, 12:30pm-3pm
Tuesday, January 5, 6:30pm-9pm
Fee: $60

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 vegan. 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…

***Everyone Loves Japanese Curry***
Saturday, February 27, 12pm-2:30pm
Fee: $60

Mild Japanese curry is the very first dish we learn to make as a child Japan.  It's not too late, you can still get your first lesson on Japanese curry making.  It's a great one pot meal that everyone loves, perfect for a cold winter day. Adding a little challenge, we'll also make chicken katsu (chicken cutlet) to make katsu curry. Yum!
