Class description: With some 1400 years of Buddhist influence, the Japanese cuisine offers a huge variety of vegetarian dishes, many of which are little known outside of Japan. Discover how to transform bland ingredients such as tofu into tasty and textural delights. Learn traditional flavouring and preparation techniques to bring out the best in your local seasonal produce. Prepare a completely vegetarian nigiri-style sushi platter with toppings that you would not imagine! The class focuses on refreshing dishes that can be enjoyed chilled in hot weather.
Example menu:
Gourmet vegetarian nigiri-style sushi
