Cooking Class: Superb Sushi From Scratch

In this hands-on cooking class with Chef Ricky, you’ll learn how to prepare an array of maki sushi and other Japanese specialties. You’ll use a bounty of fresh, high-quality ingredients and advanced sushi-rolling techniques. Chef Ricky will first teach you how to make miso soup from scratch and how to properly prepare sushi rice. You’ll then learn how to create a rainbow roll, dragon roll and a volcano roll (with scallops). For dessert, you’ll make an authentic Japanese shaved ice called kakigori.

I have been wanting to learn about sous vide for a long time. In fact, my husband and I are now looking at purchasing a sous vide and vacuum sealer! I recommend Chef Ricky for this class and others. I’m hoping to do a sushi class with him next. The food was delicious and the best part is I learned how to make it! Chef Ricky keeps you engaged in the process step by step and very entertaining with his knowledge of food and cooking. Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.
