＊Miso Soup
I’ll serve you a cup of tofu miso soup made with “Hatcho Miso.”

＊Cut-out Mizu-Yokan"
Let's make an azuki red bean jelly! We'll use the mold of your choice to press into the Mizuyokan. Must be an easy and cute dessert.
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.
In this lesson, we’ll make “Kyaraben”, character bento boxes that are extremely popular with children in Japan.
Kyaraben are known for their fun designs, often inspired by anime characters or animals.
They bring joy to both kids and adults, and are sometimes called “edible art".”
In this class, we’ll make a sleeping bear bento.
The cute bear is tucked in under a silky egg blanket (kinshi tamago), and we’ll also prepare fun and tasty side dishes, such as chicken meatballs and duck-shaped chikuwa fish cakes.
You’ll also learn simple tips and tricks so you can recreate this adorable bento in your own country!
