Edomae or Tokyo-style sushi called nigiri is an art form in the hands of Chef Okada, the fourth generation chef at restaurant Ginza Sushi-ko with over 130 years of history. In this 2 week course, students will start by taking the essential 5 Day Basic Japanese Cooking Skills Course with Chef Yoshida at TOKYO COOK’S kitchen. Because basic cooking techniques are needed to prepare not only neta (fish toppings), but also rice and other sushi preparations, this one week course is required. For the second week, students will transfer to Ginza Sushi-ko to continue the course. Here they will delve into an immersive sushi experience with Chef Okada starting with how to properly cook and prepare sushi rice; expert instruction into methods for cutting fish will top the agenda; and the proper way to create the iconic nigiri.
