Tokyo Vegan Miso Soup Workshops

Utterly brilliant class, I highly recommend it to everyone and it was an incredible way to get better connected to Japanese culture too, whatever your experience level already!! Not to mention, you learn life-skills, and you get to taste some beyond amazing drinks and food as you work and learn -- huge thank you to the entire team but most of all to my awesome teacher that day!! Thank you so so much, you are so awesome!!

We thoroughly enjoyed the miso making class. Sae-san and the others were so welcoming and knowledgable. They explained everything in detail and loved the "hands on" class for both of us. After we made the miso, we loved being offered to taste different misos and the amakaze. They served us miso soup so that we could tast 2 of the different types of miso. It was interesting how differrent they all tasted. We also both loved the hojicha and match flavors of amakaze and the rice cookies were delicious. It was a cute shop and will definitely go back for a visit the next time we are in Tokyo. Can't wait to make some miso at home! We need to keep the Japanese traditions going. Highly recommend this class. Five stars!

I mostly enjoyed the Miso Making workshop and everyone there was absolutely lovely. However our teacher was more of a translator than knowledgeable in the art of Miso making and so questions slightly above surface level where hard to get an answer to. Fortunately part of the workshop is an Amazake taste test and that washed all of my frustrations away.

This was a fantastic experience!! The shop is cute and quaint and on the street to Tokyo Tower and on the way to Zojoji temple. Our host was very informative on how miso is made and the different types of miso. It was fun and challenging to make our own miso. We got to taste different misos at the end and had miso soup. We also did some Amazake (a sweet fermented rice drink) tasting because they have it there at the shop as well. I loved everyone at the shop and the experience. This is a MUST if you really want to experience true Japanese products, hospitality, and generosity.

It was such a great experience. Such a great, and easy to find, location. The lesson was hands on and they spoke great English and even gave us a printed recipe to take home. We also loved the little gift shop attached and how they gave us a beautiful gift at the end. Can't wait for my Miso to ferment and eat! Highly recommend this experience.

Such a fun experience! The team really made us feel welcome and were very engaging, very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing their skills. We had a lot of questions which they were happy to answer and we left feeling really inspired to continue learning about traditional Japanese culinary methods. Have already recommended the class to some other friends and we can't wait to come back again in the future!

Great staff and such a fun experience with a yummy Amazake tasting afterwards! We’re super excited to eat the miso in a few months

This was a very good opportunity to learn about Miso paste. The wonderful ladies guided me through the process step by step while I worked hands on to produce the miso paste. Explaining different elements and pointers as we went along. The result is I have a jar of miso paste to mature and use in the future. They also provided me with the opportunity to taste three different types of miso paste to understand the differences. And of course a miso soup to sample the end result. They also provided the opportunity to taste a range of Ama-zake – a range of rice drinks with different flavours. A very worthwhile few hours giving a deeper understanding of Japanese cooking and culture with hands on support.

It was exceptional. Very good instruction, very interesting.

I did the Miso workshop with Naomi. Absolutely amazing. If you love ferments, health, miso, japanese cooking and flavours or have no idea what any of this is - I highly recommend. Naomi is a lovely person and it really feel like you are getting the true cultural vibe in her shop. Its like being at home Naomi and staff are so friendly and relaxed. It was one of my favourite experiences in Tokyo and the whole Japan. Im home now and inspired to turn my kitchen into a fermentation palace, jus like Naomi. Naomi a picture of health, so it has reinforced to me why I want more of this lifestyle.

Super amazing, can't say enough good things! I got a good idea of how to make miso and there was also a great discussion about miso types and ways to use Koji. Got to sample type of miso paste, miso broth, and kojizaki.
