Sushi Class in Plovdiv — Hands-On Cooking Course

If you love sushi and want to make it at home, this sushi class in Plovdiv is your chance to get hands-on. During a two-and-a-half-hour session with a qualified chef, you will cook with a range of ingredients and discover how enjoyable time in the kitchen can be when you are learning something new.

Japanese cooking, with attention to the details

Sushi is Japan's most widely enjoyed dish and is prepared around the world. Achieving its distinctive, authentic flavour, however, depends on a number of small but important details. This class introduces the essential techniques and preparation behind the different shapes and flavours on the menu.

You will begin with sushi rice: the right proportions for cooking, the cooking process itself and seasoning with a traditional rice vinegar mixture. Explore why this foundation deserves careful attention before moving on to the other ingredients and shaping the sushi.

Preparing ingredients, sauces and marinades

The class covers how to choose and prepare fresh sushi ingredients. You will explore cutting techniques and the advance preparation of the fish and vegetables used in the recipes.

You will also learn about making different sauces and marinades to complement and bring out the flavour of sushi. Japanese mayonnaise and unagi sauce are both on the menu. The aim is to leave not just with new skills, but with greater confidence to prepare Japanese specialities at home, paying attention to precision, flavour and technique.
