Class Description

Description

For most Americans, the primary exposure to Japanese cuisine comes through the lens of the sushi restaurant setting. However, authentic Japanese home cooking encompasses a vastly broader range of techniques and ingredients. 

This class will explore the full spectrum of savory ingredients and cooking methods that characterize this deeply flavorful, umami-rich cuisine. (The term "umami" is Japanese in origin and translates to "deliciousness.")

Menu:

  • Japanese Vegetable Curry with Pickled Daikon Radish
  • Yakisoba, which is Stir-fried Noodles prepared with Pork Belly and Fresh Vegetables
  • Yudofu, a warm Dashi-Poached Silken Tofu dish served with Sesame Sauce
  • Steamed Haiga Rice 
School Notes:

For NYC In-Person Classes:

You’ll receive a complete recipe packet and enjoy a full sit-down meal at the end of class with your classmates. Our classes are BYOB, and you are welcome to bring a bottle to enjoy at the sit-down meal (not including our baking or dessert classes).

Our classes are hands-on, coupled with demonstration-style teaching. Everyone is situated at their own cutting board/chef’s knife station around a large wooden work table that accommodates the whole class (10 people max). We work together as a group, with the chef at the head of the table.

We focus on knife skills, preparing ingredients for cooking, and we strive to find every opportunity to offer you a hands-on experience at the stove and at your station, all within the spatial parameters of a single stove/family-style kitchen. We ask for volunteers to assist in all cooking.

Refund Policy

For Public Classes:

We have a firm 3 business days cancellation policy (for credit only) to ensure that we have enough time to re-fill your seat with another student.

Please note: Boot Camps require 6 business days notice to be rescheduled.

While it is not in our nature to say no, we are simply not able to accommodate last-minute illnesses or work-related conflicts. However, you are always welcome to send someone in your place, because we understand that these things do happen. Classes are not refundable.

 For Culinary Boot Camps:
 

Because of the volume of Boot Camps we offer, we cannot offer make-up classes to anyone who misses a single class, no matter the reason, as it happens too often and we cannot handle that volume of make-ups.  Once you book your boot camp, make sure to mark (and prioritize) all the dates in your calendar. 

 Because we know how disappointing it is to miss a class, you are always welcome to send a friend in your place (just send us their name ahead of class), and perhaps insist that they cook you dinner as repayment.  

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

 Thank you for understanding!
