DETAILS
Join our brand-new one day Japanese cookery class based on Atsuko’s new cookbook ‘Atsuko’s Japanese Kitchen’. With over 10 years of teaching experience, Atsuko takes you on a journey to the truth of Japanese cuisine.
This class is all about celebrating Japanese everyday cooking. You will learn how to prepare the very best home-cooked comfort food recipes from Atsuko’s cookbooks. You will also be introduced to the simple secrets of Japanese cuisine based on the magic “rule of 5”, how to plan and eat a meal the Japanese way and the essential ingredients and tools you will need to get started. Atsuko will give you plenty of cooking tips throughout the class to help you understand the concept behind Japanese food.
Designed as a full day interactive, fun and hands-on cooking class for eight people. You will all cook together with Atsuko and enjoy tasting the fruits of your labour with a sit down meal in a fun, informal atmosphere.
Expect an intensive day as most of popular Japanese dishes will be covered in this class, however you will gain the confidence needed to cook a full Japanese meal to impress your friends and family!
