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.
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.
Welcome to Japan!
In this experience, you will learn very flavorful 100% plant base ramen and gyoza. My classes are all hands on followed by my short demo. Everyone gets their own knife, chopping board, and you will be cooking your own noodles, and presenting beautiful homemade ramen. Ingredients are most likely what you can find in your area, some mushrooms might not be available, however, I will suggest alternative ingredients to use. Some ingredients might be very new to you, so you will be learning how to use it and it will be surprising to add so much umami/flavors in vegetarian dishes. Many great tips to make super crispy juicy pan fried gyoza and of course, we will learn about cooking tools, some Japanese cooking gadgets you have never seen. We will cook from all from the beginning within the class timeframe. Of course my passion is not only sharing cooking techniques, I’d love to share with you how locals live and visit my neighborhoods where you wouldn’t be visiting as tourists. Most importantly, I want my guests to experience and perceive real lives in Japan. Looking forward to having you all!
NOTE:
We do not make noodles and gyoza wrappers from scratch
