Aichi Prefecture is known as one of Japan’s leading areas for traditional seasonings, including soya sauce, mirin, sake, vinegar and miso. In this hands-on lesson, you will discover how traditional fermentation transforms simple ingredients into a rich, complex flavour.

You will use premium local seasonings–artisan soya sauce, authentic brewed mirin and local sake–to create the ultimate teriyaki chicken. We will share our golden ratio of teriyaki sauce, along with secret tips for making perfectly crispy and juicy teriyaki chicken.

To complete the meal, we will also prepare traditional side dishes; miso soup made with Aichi’s famous red miso, a refreshing side dish using local vinegar, and Dashimaki Tamago (rolled omelette) seasoned with white dashi. After the cooking session, sit down and savour the delicious meal you’ve created!

The lesson is beginner-friendly and suitable for all skill levels. This experience is perfect for travellers who want to enjoy Japanese home cuisine and take home practical cooking skills to share with your family and friends! We look forward to cooking with you!
