Basics to advanced techniques
You can acquire a wide range of skills and knowledge about sushi, including how to use a Japanese kitchen
knife, how to prepare rice for sushi (Shari), how to clean and cure fish, how to make Edomae style sushi, rolls
and food hygiene management.
A large variety of seafood
You will learn how to make sushi with more than 20 kinds of seafood: white, red, small, medium or large fish,
shellfish, squid or octopus. Tuna, salmon, yellowtail and shrimp are popular overseas, but you will also deal
with basic fish for Edomae style sushi, such as Kohada (Gizzard shad) or Conger eel.
Techniques adjusted to each ingredient
Edomae style sushi preserves ancient wisdom of chefs in Tokyo (Edo), such as Kobu-jime and Su-jime
(Curing with kelp or vinegar) and Zuke (Marinating with soy sauce). Learning the basic techniques that bring
out the best taste of ingredients will broaden the possibility of your cooking.
