Overview
Step into the cozy kitchen of a real Tokyo mom and experience the warm hospitality of Japanese home cooking. This class offers more than just recipes—it’s a cultural journey guided by someone who has cooked these meals for her own family.
You’ll prepare handmade dishes that Japanese people truly eat at home, using natural ingredients and seasonal vegetables. Learn the fundamentals of washoku (Japanese cuisine), including how to make authentic dashi (Japanese soup stock) without additives. All main dishes and sides are made from scratch.
This is not a touristy cooking show—this is a heartwarming, real-life taste of Japan.

In this class, you’ll learn how to prepare a traditional Japanese norimaki (sushi roll), one main side dish of your choice, a seasonal vegetable dish, and a comforting bowl of miso soup — all menus include these dishes.
The norimaki can be substituted with an onigiri (rice ball) if you prefer.
For the main side dish, please choose from:
Teriyaki Chicken – tender chicken glazed in a sweet and savory soy-based sauce
Saikyo Yaki – miso-marinated fish grilled for a rich, delicate flavor
Gyoza – pan-fried dumplings filled with ground pork and vegetables
We’ll begin by making dashi (Japanese soup stock) completely from scratch — a skill at the heart of Japanese home cooking and the secret to creating depth of flavor in everyday dishes.
This is a wonderful opportunity to experience the warmth and balance of Japanese family meals while learning techniques you can easily recreate at home.
A vegetarian option is available upon request.
