[NEW] Sushi-Making Experience Deluxe Course

C001D

Create a new signature dish in this sushi-making experience with a nationally accredited instructor. Experience hands-on training and learn how to create beautifully-shaped sushi – typically inherently difficult to make – using simple utensils in just a few hours.

*To ensure your safety and hygiene, each private group is led by one or more instructor.

HIGHLIGHT

◆ Combine a cooking lesson with a sushi meal
◆ Practice under the guidance of a licensed instructor
◆ Lesson takes place in our state-of-the-art Grand TJT facility near Tokyo Tower
◆ Dietary requirements can be accommodated with advance notice (vegan, kosher, halal, etc.)

◆ Receive an easy-to-use sushi-making kit as a souvenir

Students will make the following three types of sushi:

  1. Hosomaki Zushi: Thinly sliced ingredients, such as cucumber and tuna, wrapped in rice and rolled in nori seaweed
  2. Gunkan Zushi: Rice wrapped in nori seaweed topped with soft ingredients such as salmon roe, cod roe, or minced tuna
  3. Nigiri Zushi: Classical style sushi: rice topped with ingredients such as tuna, shrimp, white fish, etc.

◆ Upgrade your experience to include a sake or tea tasting session (additional cost).

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

 To start the program, participants will learn all about the culture of sushi and practice the hygiene techniques necessary to prevent contamination. Your instructor will also tell you a little about the history of the cuisine, and how it has come to be as it is today.

 Then you will get to work making your sushi! Though restaurant chefs may make it look easy, acquiring the techniques to make beautiful and artistic sushi pieces can take years of practice. In our lesson, however, you will master some of the basics in just a few hours (with a little help from our handy rice-molding kits should you need them). Using these techniques, you will learn to make three delicious types of sushi: nigiri zushi (classic hand-molded sushi), gunkan maki (sushi wrapped in nori seaweed) and hosomaki zushi (thin sushi rolls).  

 Our classes are flexible, designed for everyone from beginners to expert chefs, and we offer instruction on handmaking sushi, as well as information on the use of sushi-making kit. Whichever way fits you; we can teach you how to make tasty and photo-worthy sushi that is can compete with any of Tokyo’s best sushi joints.

 After you have made your sushi, you will then sit down to enjoy it as a meal. As you eat, your instructor will teach you all about the condiments related to sushi, as well as introduce you to Japanese dining etiquette. Our knowledgeable instructors all have high-level language skills, so this conversation can be almost as delicious as the meal. Bon Appétit!
