About

Join us for an adventure into the heart of Japanese cuisine.
Learn to make a low-calorie fried chicken (baked karaage) that's approachable for all ages. This will be accompanied by yuzu mayo (a Japanese mayonnaise that's flavored with yuzu, a citrus fruit, giving it a rich, tangy, fragrant taste).
 
At the end of class, we’ll explore how mochi has become so popular in our culture and together we’ll make chi chi dango mochi (sweet, glutinous flour bites that are traditional Japanese sweet dumplings). We'll prepare everything from scratch.  
 
On the menu  
Chicken karaage (Japanese fried chicken).
Tofu karaage (vegetarian option).
Yuzu mayo with furikake (a seasoning).
Chi chi dango mochi.

Instructor
Theary Tran

Theary spent her childhood years in her native Cambodia, where cooking was integral to the culture. Cooking with local ingredients and trusting her senses, Theary learned to achieve flavor in dishes that looked as good as they tasted. These skills enabled her to feel at home regardless of the cuisine she's exploring. For the past 20 years, Theary has been bringing her love of art and cooking to children and adults, teaching fundamentals as building blocks for creativity. The result is a safe and encouraging environment for students to explore their imaginations. Her goal is for each student to have a positive experience that inspires self-confidence, and the opportunity to connect with their own creativity. Theary is currently a K-6 educator locally and in Sonoma County. In her spare time, she spends time in the water, kayaking, hiking, or biking.
