A little more about Japanese cuisine…

Traditional home-style cooking balances aesthetic harmony with wholesome nutrition. A typical washoku course consists of ichiju-sansai一汁三菜 (one soup dish, one rice dish and three different complimentary dishes). Although deeply rooted in tradition, these dishes can be recreated overseas and incorporated into daily meals. Throughout the workshop, Shuji not only shares his culinary skills, but also the wisdom of authentic Japanese culinary philosophy—bestowing practical knowledge that leads to improved health and longevity.
