Class report from cooking classes
The class welcomed a couple from L.A. It was the last cooking class on September. It was still hot and humid day even though it was almost autumn season on the calendar. I believe this summer in Japan must be hard for human!
Although the weather was like summer, I’d like to express autumn on the dining table. we prepared sweet potato rice at this time.
Japanese sweet potato has a unique texture I, and the customers never seen in outside of Japan.
The outside is beautiful purple and inside is white. It contains a dense starch so the potato become nice and soft texture, but not watery when it cooked. We Japanese have been eating baked potato as a natural healthy snack.
I had a request as no pork for the ingredients so we cooked fish Nanban-zuke for the main course.
Today’s menu on Sep 29th ’16
Mackarel Nanban-zuke
Cucumber sesame dressing
eggplant with miso-egg sauce

I have a cooking class guests from Hong King. They are so lovely, fun and sweet girls and I enjoyed cooking pretty much!
The guests and I communicated thorough email to decide the menu. The guest wanted to learn ” real Japanese cooking from the scratch and decided the menu as….
Squid steamed rice Ikameshi
Japanese style roast beef w / fresh greens wasabi dressing
Maki sishi
crab meat croquette
eggplant chicken nimono
Mizuna clear soup
matcha pudding
Since I was soooo busy that I didn’t have chance to take those pics!
I believe taking local food cooking class is such a good idea to take the skill and experience back to your country. The guest today learned a lot and I believe they will cook easy Japanese home cooking at their kitchen.
Many Thanks Maruko and Hiromi!
