Udon (うどん) is a type of thick wheat flour noodle. It is similar to Italian pasta, but much thicker. It has been eaten all over Japan as an easy-to-eat popular meal, and a substitute meal for rice dishes. Udon is often served hot as a noodle soup in its simplest form, as "kake udon", in a mildly flavoured broth called kakejiru, which is made of dashi, soy sauce, and mirin. The flavor of broth and topping vary from region to region.
Rice is a staple food in Japan. In all most every family, there is a rice cooker. There is variety of Japanese rice brands such as Koshihikari and Hitomebore.
Japanese popular alcoholic drink must be Sake, or called Nihonshu, made from fermented rice. The foundation of good sake is quality rice, clean water, koji mold and yeast. Premium sake differentiates itself in quality of ingredients and production process, so that flavors ranges light and crisp to richer, fruity notes.
In this class, you can cook pork cutlet, katsudon ,Japanese mashroom soup, tamagoyaki and Oshiruko.

Hello! My name is Junko. I'm a Japanese homemaker who finished Sofia University, worked for some high schools, love swimming, touring canoe, reading books and traveling.
My love for traditional Japanese cuisine runs deep, as I have been accustomed to preparing these dishes since early on. I am committed to preparing high-quality, additive-free dishes with a focus on health-conscious cooking.
Born and raised in Tokyo, I've also had the enriching experience of living in places like Singapore, Hong Kong, and the United States for about five years in total. Along the way, I've picked up some English and enjoy using it whenever I can.
I have a sociable and diplomatic personality, finding pleasure in engaging with people from diverse backgrounds. Sharing the richness of Japanese food culture is a passion of mine, and I look forward to connecting with you through this culinary journey!
※We have two bicycles, so you can cycle to local, calm and worth seeing places that are not touristy.
※I'm a qualified Japanese flower arrangement instructor and have my own high quality kimono, so if you want to try on it after cooking class, please contact me in advance.

★★★★★The cooking class was very thorough, and I was able to learn so much about each of the dishes I prepared! The final products were all extremely delicious and Junko also prepared a dessert for me to try as well. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in learning more about Japanese cooking!

Hi, Dennis, thank you for learning how to make Tonkatsu at my home.
I'm glad that you're satisfied with all the menu items.
How was Japan stay? I'm sure you enjoyed having Japanese cuisine in Tokyo and Kyoto. If there's something you have eaten in Japan that you like, I can teach you any dish if you show me a photo. Thank you again.

★★★★★Junko is an awesome and experienced cook. My son and I had enjoyed the learning experience very much. We now know the sercrets of cooking tonkatsu. We were also pleasantly surprised that Junko stayed in Singapore for a couple of years and she still likes the hawker centre food in Singapore. She was in Singapore recently.

Hi, Jason,
thank you for joining my class yesterday. I have loved Singapore ever since I was treated with kindness by a Singaporean on my first visit there, and of course, I love local foods in hawker. Singapore pork is famous among local Japanese for its delicious taste. Please try making it for your family!

★★★★★Nous avons passé un moment magique avec Junko. Son mari et elle nous ont chaleureusement accueillis dans leur maison. Le cours fut une merveilleuse occasion de découvrir la cuisine locale, ses ingrédients, mais surtout d’avoir une bonne vision de la vraie vie à Tokyo. Ce fut une expérience mémorable. Merci beaucoup Junko!

★★★★★Our family loved learning to cook Japanese food with Junko. We now know what to buy to make authentic Japanese dishes and how to prepare them. Junko’s explanations were clear and easy to follow. It was also lovely to visit a beautiful person in her own suburban home. We enjoyed an easy walk from the station and were interested to walk through the suburban area and to pass a large communal vegetable plot on the way. This will certainly be a highlight of our visit to Japan.
