Class Description:
Have you ever wanted to learn the secrets behind making delectable, restaurant-quality sushi that you can recreate at home? This Sushi 101 class is sure to delight your taste buds and leave you inspired to bring the art of sushi-making into your own kitchen.  In this hands-on, interactive class, Chef Sophia Chatfield will guide you through the fundamentals of sushi making. We’ll break out the bamboo mats and get “rolling”, as she teaches beginner sushi-making tips and techniques. You’ll get your hands in on the action as you try your hand at making Sushi Rice, Maki Rolls, Nigiri (and the Nikiri sauce to join it), and a Spicy Tuna Roll. Sophia will also show you how to make simple Wasabi and Sriracha Mayos, a light Dashi sauce and how to pickle ginger for that perfect accompaniment to your sushi rolls.

You'll start by learning how to properly prepare sushi rice, the foundation of any great sushi roll. Then, we'll explore a variety of classic sushi fillings, from fresh seafood options to crisp vegetables and savory umami sauce flavors. Using the techniques demonstrated, you'll have the chance to craft your own sushi rolls, learning how to slice, assemble, and artfully present your creations. Chef Sophia will be with you at every step to provide feedback and tips to help you hone your sushi-rolling skills. Tonight’s informative fundamentals class will also cover the basics like how to safely store fish, where and how to buy sushi grade fish, hand-rolling techniques, presentation and much more – all important information to get you on your way to rolling sushi in your own kitchen. Sushi always delivers on flavor and fun, so let’s get our sushi on, because we like the way you roll!
