★Premium Teriyaki Chicken
Teriyaki chicken is a classic Japanese home-style dish.
It is known for its sweet and savory flavor and shiny glaze.
The sauce is made with soy sauce, sake, and mirin.
Soy sauce gives a rich, salty taste.
Sake adds depth and removes any strong meat smell.
Mirin gives gentle sweetness and a glossy finish.
In Japanese, “teriyaki” means shiny and grilled or cooked.
This balance of sweet and salty flavors is very typical of Japanese cuisine.
★Basic Dashi stock
Dashi is the basis of Japanese cuisine.
The taste of Japanese food is determined by whether or not this dashi can be made deliciously.
We will make authentic dashi together using kombu (kelp) and dried bonito flakes.
★Miso-soup
Once you have made a good dashi broth, use it to make miso soup.
Miso soup is atypical home-style Japanese dish that can be eaten in every home.
Here, too, we use Nagoya's famous red miso.
★Japanese Rolled Omelet
Omelette is also a very famous dish in Japan.
It is made in a special square frying pan.
It is a little difficult to roll them nicely, but let's try it with the instructor!
★Namasu
Namasu is a Japanese salad of thinly sliced daikon radish and cattots lightly pickled in sweet vinegar.
★Onigiri Rice balls
We will make onigiri (rice balls), a favorite of both children and the elderly.
Onigiri can be made with a variety of ingredients such as salmon flakes, kelp, tuna, etc.
We will also teach you how to make beautiful triangles!
Onigiri is a Japanese comfort food made from steamed rice formed into the typical triangular, ball, or cylinder shapes and usually wrapped with nori(dried seaweed). Stuffed with a a variety of fillings and flavors, these rice balls make an ideal quick snack and are a fun alternative to sandwitches for lunch.
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.
Miso soup is a traditional Japanese soup. It's base is "dashi" (Japanese fish stock) and Miso paste. Common added ingredients are Tofu, Green onion and deep‐fried tofu but differs by personal preference. The type of miso is different from region. In western and Easter Japan white miso is mostly used.
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.
