About this class

  • Your warm host, who has studied in Japan herself, greets you in the beautiful shop, the Meijin Secret Recipe Studio.
  • Today it's about the basics of sushi art. We answer questions such as:
    • Which rice do you use, how is it prepared and soured?
    • Where can I get the best ingredients?
    • What is “sushi-quality” fish?
    • Which accessories are necessary or useful?
  • Together, we prepare a variety of sushi variations, classic and a bit more unusual makimono.
  • In doing so, you will learn all important basic techniques, including:
    • How to handle nori leaves and the bamboo mat.
    • the filling and rolling of “normal” maki and variants
    • Cut sushi into exact and shapely pieces
    • Forms and forms of nigiri
    • Frying sushi
  • In addition to the homemade sushi menu, you can also expect homemade miso soup to eat!
  • After the work is done, of course, we eat together. Nothing is as inviting to try, share and exchange as sushi!
  • Of course, there are all recipes and instructions for the sushi rolls for cooking and further experimentation.
  • Please bring your own apron and tupperware, there will be enough sushi rolls left over for home.

We were very impressed by the good service, everything was explained in detail. The products were super fresh and easy to process. It was unbelievably fun, tasted delicious. It was very good that you could learn everything alone, so what we learned is better remembered. Many thanks to our host Meijin, we will definitely remember you fondly and recommend you to others
