Registration is closed! Thanks for your support and interest!
After months of preparation, I am glad to announce that registration for our very first Sushi Appreciation Workshop is now opened!
If you have always felt a bit shy about sitting at the Sushi Counter, then this workshop is for you! After the workshop you will be able to:
1. Sit at the counter and order your sushi and not look like you are a Sushi newbie ripe for a killing.
2. Be able to converse with the itamae on which of the three different species of Bluefin Tuna he is serving and whether they come from sustainable stock.
3. Tell whether the Tai you have been served is wild Madai or some lesser Tai.
4. Describe the process of ikejime to the potential boyfriend/girlfriend and act as if it was something you knew all along.
5. Ask the waitress why you are paying so much for Shima Aji when it is obvious that you have been given the cheaper Hamachi.
We are also arranging to demonstrate the cutting of a whole block of Tuna so that you get to see where the Otoro, Chutoro, Akami and Shimafuri comes from!
Here is the list of Seafood we will be covering:
Akami dane: (Red Fish) Honmaguro, Chutoro, Akami, Bachi Maguro
Shiromi dane:(White Fish) Hamachi, Kampachi, Shima aji, Hirame, Tai
Hikari mono: (Silver skin fish) Aji, Nama shime Saba
Hokano mono: (Misc) Hotate, Hokkaido Aka Uni, Sake, Mekajiki, Tamago yaki
Nimono dane: (Braised items) Anago
There will be a slideshow showing the different fish and you will get to sample the different fish one at a time so that you can learn to discern the difference in taste and texture
