Mochi and Traditional Sweets Making with Tea Ceremony
Cooking Classes
Making “Nerikiri & Mochi” and enjoying “Matcha in Tokyo” was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend taking this course in Japan! I love to cook and bake, so when I saw the chance to make something I’d never had, I signed up alongside my siblings, and we had so much fun. Our instructor, Satoko, was such a delight; she educated us on the history of mochi and nerikiri, making the experience all the more special. As for the mochi and nerikiri, they tasted SO amazing (they also happened to be Vegan and Gluten-Free, which was great as they fit into my personal dietary restrictions). I have added the recipes to my favorites list and will be making them again back home! Overall, I highly recommend taking this class, especially with Satoko; she was sweet and helpful throughout the lesson. I will be sure to take another class with her once back in Japan!
