They’ll share family recipes, stories, and wisdom passed down through generations.

Then, roll up your sleeves and prepare comforting local dishes such as keno-jiru (vegetable miso soup), onigiri rice balls, and seasonal sides.
You’ll learn how to wash, cut, and season ingredients the Japanese way, using simple techniques you can easily recreate at home.
After cooking, everyone gathers around one table to share the meal — an inclusive, plant-based menu suitable for vegan, halal, and vegetarian guests.
Enjoy the flavors, stories, and laughter that connect people across cultures.
This is more than a cooking class; it’s a cultural exchange where you’ll cook, eat, and connect with the heart of Aomori’s community.
