3-hour Sushi Making Class in Ninomiya
Find out how to make perfect sushi rice, the base of delicious sushi
Prepare various other ingredients for sushi
Make miso soup from scratch with dashi soup stock
Enjoy eating delicious homemade sushi (No need to clean up, the host has you covered!)
Discover the variety of Japanese sushi in this hands-on cooking class in Ninomiya. While many people associate sushi with raw fish, Japan is home to many delicious sushi styles that highlight vegetables, egg, tofu, and seasoned rice.
In this class, you'll choose one of four popular sushi varieties and learn how to make it from scratch.
Each menu showcases a different side of Japanese sushi. You might make colorful temari sushi, bite-sized sushi balls topped with fish, egg, and vegetables, or chirashi sushi, a vibrant bowl of sushi rice topped with an assortment of ingredients.
Other options include kazari inari sushi, featuring sweet fried tofu pockets filled with rice, egg, and vegetables, or maki sushi, beautifully rolled sushi filled with fish, egg, and vegetables, and served with inari-zushi.
A great sushi meal starts with perfectly prepared rice, so you'll also learn how to cook and season Japanese short-grain rice, the foundation of sushi.
To complete the meal, you'll make miso soup from scratch using dashi prepared with bonito flakes and kelp, two essential ingredients in Japanese home cooking.
Choose one of the following menu options, each served with miso soup: kazari inari sushi, temari sushi, chirashi sushi, or maki sushi with inari-zushi.
While Ninomiya might seem a little out of the way, it’s a perfect stop if you’re on your way to see Mount Fuji or the hot springs of Izu or Hakone
You will learn how to prepare sushi rice, prepare ingredients for sushi, and make one of four different sushi styles. You will also learn how to make miso soup from scratch using dashi made with bonito and kelp.

I would highly recommend this class, it was a great experience. We had fun dressing up in kimonos, children included. We learned how to make real sushi and enjoyed an incredible sushi meal at the end. Don't miss it, it was an experience of a lifetime.

Cool experience making your own food. Manami the host was really nice. Definitely worth the trip if you are in Hakone or Odawara as it is only a 10 minute ride to get there.
