Overview

You will learn to make onigiri rice balls, dashimaki tamago, spinach goma-ae, and other seasonal side dishes that create a balanced meal.
The class combines demonstrations with practical cooking, so you can learn authentic techniques while preparing the dishes yourself. After cooking, enjoy your handmade bento as a relaxing picnic by the Kamo River. The experience ends with a casual outdoor matcha moment made with fresh shrine water.
