Nagoya Sushi Making Class at a 100-Year Old Storehouse

Sushi is one of Japan’s most famous dishes, but as there are so many delicious styles and toppings where should you even start? Learn everything you need to know about sushi and join a Nagoya Sushi Making Class on your next trip to the industrial capital of Japan: Nagoya. During this fun and hands-on cooking class, you’ll have the opportunity to make 4 different types of sushi. This Nagoya Sushi Making Class is where you’ll learn how to make ball-shaped temari sushi, hand-rolled sushi, vegetable sushi (that’s right, not all sushi is made from raw fish!), and a battleship-shaped “gunkan” style of sushi. Your friendly English-speaking cooking instructor will welcome you to her traditional Japanese home in a local Nagoya neighborhood, where the cooking studio is located inside a renovated 105-year-old Japanese “kura” storehouse! A glimpse into old Japanese culture, you can also enjoy walking around her tranquil Japanese garden. You’ll have a seasonal welcome drink before heading off into the vegetable garden to help harvest some fruits and vegetables when they’re in season, then make your own delicious Nagoya sushi after a demonstration. Your cooking instructor is friendly and flexible, and more than happy to answer any questions you might have about Japanese food or Nagoya cuisine. You’ll learn handy tips and tricks on how to make traditional Japanese food in your home country, using simple alternative cooking methods like microwaves, pressure pots, and ovens which can be used in place of traditional Japanese steamers, grills, and more. You’ll become a sushi master, making 4 different types of sushi from a range of delicious fresh ingredients, and then eat them too! Plus, you can take any leftover foods home as a delicious souvenir.
