・Vegan Ramen-Learn how to make Ramen soup from the scratch
・Vegan Gyoza
Ramen is a noodle soup dish and perhaps one of the most popular Japanese dishes. There are many flavours of ramen, such as Shoyu (soy sauce) ramen, Miso ramen, Tonkotsu (pork bone) ramen and so on. Common toppings are Chashu (braised pork), Negi (green onion) and Nori (dried seaweed).
Gyoza is a dumpling using wrapping thing dough to hold the inner ingredients. Most commonly, minced pork, cabbage, Garlic and Leek. The origin of Gyoza is from China but it has evolved uniquely in Japan and now quite different from the Chinese one.
【Vegan/Vegetarian Japanese Cooking in English】
Ramen and Gyoza is very popular in Japan but it is using animal products unfortunately. We offer classes that teach you techniques to make for vegan and vegetarian versions of these dishes.

★★★★★ (2)Hello! I’m Sakiko. I’m originally from the Enoshima and Kamakura area near Tokyo, and I’ve been living in Kyoto for 10 years.
I teach vegan cooking classes, as well as authentic Japanese home cooking (including fish-based dishes) to Japanese women. I’ve been teaching for 7 years, and I specialize in dashi, the foundation of Japanese cuisine. I’ve also appeared on TV to introduce dashi and its traditions.
I'm a pescatarian myself, but I truly enjoy cooking vegetarian meals as well.
I lived in Florida for a year, where I worked as a sushi chef at a Japanese restaurant inside Walt Disney World. I also worked at a Japanese restaurant in Kyoto for several years.
I started this class because I love seeing guests discover how simple and delicious Japanese home cooking can be. I want to share Japanese food culture with people from around the world, support visitors from abroad, and—if I may say it humbly—do my small part in contributing to world peace. That’s why I created this vegan class.
I hope this experience becomes a special memory of your trip to Japan.

★★★★★I joined the Vegan Raman and Gyoza cooking class and really enjoyed the experience. We've been a small group of four people and Sakiko was a lovely host. I especially liked that we could taste the soup after every step to see how the flavor develops with the different ingredients. I learned a lot and hat a great evening.
