Description
Japanese Cuisine is experiencing ever increasing popularity in the UK and sushi has became one of the world’s most known dishes.
You will learn how to make popular types of sushi such as makizushi – rice and filling wrapped in nori, uramaki – rice is on the outside such as California rolls, and sashimi – raw fish. All ingredients are bought locally.
The most common type of Gyoza in Japan is Yaki-Gyoza. This style of Gyoza is very similar to the Chinese ‘potsticker’ dumplings. The prepared dumplings are placed in a pan and fried for a short time, water is then added to the pan and a lid placed on top, to steam the dumplings. When the steaming process is complete, the lid of the pan is removed and the Gyoza are left to continue to crisp.
Combination of hands-on cooking and demonstration. Eat as you cook and takeaway your creations. You will leave with tips and tricks to cook more delicious dishes at home.
Example dishes: For allergies & dietaries let us know in the booking notes.

- Making Sushi rice (step-by-step demo of sushi rice preparation)
- Making Sushi Rolls (hands on sushi making workshop)

For dietaries and allergies let us know in the booking notes.
What’s included:
- A Complimentary drink on arrival. Additional beverages can be purchased at the bar.
