About

Sushi doesn't get more participatory and fun for a group than with chirashizushi (zushi being another word for sushi, in accordance with Japanese grammar rules), or with colorful trays of unique oshizushi pressed-sushi. This class is designed for eating a lot of sushi, or taking home a lot of sushi for eating soon after. In other words, if there's any left, you'll take your tray of gorgeous sushi home for dinner.

 

On the menu

  • We’ll start with some quick pickled ginger, and learn the secrets of perfect sushi rice. 
  • We’ll create a beautiful chirashi bowl, using the washoku principles of traditional Japanese food preparation. Our fillings will reflect the colors and tastes of the season and region, from late-summer vegetables to both cooked and raw seafood.
  • Need a new skill? Try your hand at kinshi tamago (egg ribbons).
  • We’ll throw ourselves a sushi party and eat our chirashi temaki style, each person making hand rolls with their favorite ingredients at the table. 
  • Then we’ll learn the secret to quickly making trays and trays of bite-size sushi, letting our inner artist out as we make an oshizushi tray (Osaka-style pressed sushi) using a surprising tool.

Materials

A $30 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, will provide all the ingredients you'll need.
