Ramen and Gyoza class

Today’s class was Ramen and Gyoza class for 6 students !!! From U.K, France, Spain…all over the Europe:-).
I always start prepare cooking the Ramen soup stock (made by Chicken and Pork and ginger and green onion) the day before the class which I always explain to the students advance. To make Ramen Soup stock takes long time and getting better taste if it takes a time.

We made 80 Gyoza(pork dumplings) !!!!! and everyone ate all !!!! To make Gyoza with the family and the friends is so much fun !
Looks yummy right !!!!??? You can’t stop eating Gyoza !!!!!

Itadakimasu !!!!!
We had a fun lunch together !
Thank you for coming today.

Honeymooners from Tel Aviv cooking Japanese comfort food

Today’s guests are happy sweet honeymooners from the IT capital, Tel Aviv, Israel. We cooked Ramen with pork soup stock.

I also adventured to use simmered Konbu kelp in cabbage salad, which is our family’s favorite quick dish. Here we use Konbu as herbs and it goes nicely with sesame oil. Please try if you have some leftover Konbu after making Dashi broth.

The couple told me some very interesting stories about their culture & life, my favorite part of doing cooking classes for travelers!
Many thanks for coming!
