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.

Naoko
An instructor with Grade 1 Fermented Food Expert certification teaches you easy ways to incorporate Japanese fermented foods into your daily meals.
I spent five years abroad and engaged in trade operations, including food, for many years. As a result, I have gained a deep understanding of the overall food distribution industry, including food additives and labeling, and have been exposed to various domestic and international cuisines.
Moving forward, I aim to promote the excellence of healthy Japanese fermented foods directly to guests from overseas and host cooking classes to achieve this goal.
Being a health nut, I am fascinated with Japanese fermented foods which is not only about health, but also other aspects such as the country’s history, geography and culture.
These findings encouraged me to study Japan’s traditional fermented foods seriously and now I am ready to share. Won’t you discover the excellence of Japan’s fermented foods through my cooking class?
