We were met on time at Cora Coffee. Her class was set up nicely in her home. She spoke wonderful English and answered all our questions. She was very encouraging in our attempts and onigiri and Japanese only making ability or lack thereof. The food was wonderful. I would highly recommend this for anyone who loves Japanese food. And your breakfast is taken care of for the day.

I had a great time learning how to make bento containing onigiri, karaage, tamagoyaki, along with some vegetables. I have very little experience with cooking, but Yuki-san was very patient and helpful, and made sure that I did most of the work myself so that I could properly learn the process. She explained the recipe for each part of the bento, how and where the recipe can vary between families, and why she makes the choices she does. She clearly has lots of experience and was able to condense it so that I could understand. The kitchen was very large and clean. It can easily hold multiple people at once. All of the ingredients were beautifully prepared ahead of time, along with printed copies of the recipes. After cooking all the food, Yuki-san helped me in preparing and decorating the bento box which I then ate out of to finish the day. The food was very good despite me making it. The flavors were very simple and delicate as Yuki-san explained is common in Japanese food. The food tasted very clean and fresh, even the fried karaage. Yuki-san is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about cooking and sharing her culture through food. Her English is very good and I was able to clearly understand and communicate with her. Her recipes are also very thoughtful and delicious. She even gave me a small gift of a Japanese-style kitchen towel before I left. I definitely would like to attend another of her classes again in the future, and would highly recommend attending!

We could not rave about our cooking class with Kaori enough. From the grocery store walk-through, to the ingredients, the knowledge, the technique, the care, the great conversation - it was the perfect day and everything we hoped for, and more. Thank you so much Kaori! Hope to see you again soon!

We were so warmly welcomed by Midori, it was truly an amazing experience! Not only did she teach us how to cook some staple Japanese dishes (which were delicious), but she also gave us some really good tips for our trip based on our interests. We definitely recommend this cooking workshop to everyone, it's just so much fun and we really learned a lot. The lovely host Midori made this an experience we will never forget!

Discover the Art of Making Dashi

Explore the world of Japanese culinary arts with classes focused on dashi, the quintessential Japanese stock that forms the backbone of many traditional dishes. Whether you're a seasoned chef or an enthusiastic home cook, these classes offer an immersive experience into the nuances of dashi preparation and its vital role in enhancing flavors. Participants will learn from expert instructors who guide them through the steps of selecting the finest ingredients, understanding the balance of umami, and mastering the techniques that transform simple ingredients into a rich, aromatic broth.

Hands-On Learning in Dashi Classes

These dashi classes are designed for hands-on learning, where you will not only observe but actively participate in the process of making this classic Japanese stock. Classes typically start with an introduction to the core ingredients used in dashi, such as kombu (kelp) and katsuobushi (bonito flakes). You'll discover how these ingredients contribute unique flavors and the concept of umami, often referred to as the "fifth taste." Each class provides all necessary ingredients and tools, ensuring participants can focus on learning and enjoying the experience rather than worrying about preparation.

Enhance Your Culinary Skills

Attending dashi classes offers more than just a cooking lesson; it’s an opportunity to enhance your culinary skills and deepen your understanding of Japanese cuisine. As you perfect the art of making dashi, you'll also learn about its various applications in dishes like miso soup, noodle soups, and sauces. Discussions often include tips on pairing dashi with other ingredients to create balanced and flavorful meals. Take-home recipes and resources are commonly provided, allowing you to recreate the magic of Japanese cooking in your own kitchen. Whether it's for personal enjoyment or professional development, these classes promise to enrich your culinary repertoire.
