Explore everyday Sushi Rice

Welcome to a small, real Japanese home cooking session!

This time, we'll explore one of the most important foundations of Japanese cooking: rice.

You'll learn:
• How Japanese people wash rice
• How to cook rice properly
• How to make sushi rice
• How to prepare a simple smoked salmon chirashi bowl
*"Chirashi" means "scattered". Basically, we put tasty things on top of sushi rice 😆

Based on previous attendees’ preferences, these sessions have been more relaxed demonstration-style workshops, where everyone watches, asks questions, and enjoys plenty of conversation along the way.
Of course, if you'd like to be more hands-on and help with some of the preparation, you're very welcome to 😊

I'll also prepare a few simple side dishes, and you're welcome to take some food home.

Contribution:
£15–20 per person depending on the final group size.

We’ll mainly use English, but I’m not a native speaker, so thank you for your understanding 🙇‍♀️
If you’d like to use a little Japanese too, that's very welcome!

Notice:

• ⚠️ Please check your Meetup messages after signing up. I’ll send a confirmation message 2–3 days before the event. If I don’t hear back from anyone, I may need to cancel the session.
• This event takes place in my home, so I’d really appreciate your respect for the space.
• Please note that shoes are not worn indoors.
• I have two cats, so if you have allergies, dislike cats, or are uncomfortable around animals, this event may not be suitable for you.
• Meetup sometimes doesn’t display the location properly, but the event will take place in Clayton. I’ll send the full address privately after confirmation.
• I completely understand that some people may feel more comfortable attending with a friend 😉 However, the Meetup system can be a little complicated, and allowing guests may make it difficult for me to manage the group size properly.

Because of this, I’d really appreciate it if each person could join individually through Meetup.
