Itinerary

  • Nakata Cooking School in Kanazawa for an authentic Japanese cooking experience.

    Join an authentic Japanese cooking class at Nakata Cooking School, established in Kanazawa in 1969. First, learn about UMAMI and prepare traditional ichiban dashi using kombu and bonito flakes. Then make six pieces of nigiri sushi, including Nodoguro, and experience using an authentic Japanese sashimi knife. The chef will also make one piece using the same ingredients so you can compare the texture and flavor. Next, prepare Jibuni, a traditional Kanazawa dish served with fresh Japanese wasabi, and work in pairs to make dashimaki tamago, a Japanese rolled omelet rich in dashi. You will prepare five Japanese dishes in total: six pieces of nigiri sushi, Jibuni, dashimaki tamago, miso soup, and a seasonal Japanese side dish. Once the cooking is finished, sit down together and enjoy everything you have made. A small glass of Japanese sake is served before the meal. The class is relaxed, beginner-friendly, and limited to a maximum of eight guests. Real-time AI translation is available in multiple languages.
