Chef with 20 years of experience

Meet the sushi class

Hallo I'm Chef Koji, who started as a native of Japan's three-Michelin star “Kanda,” and currently runs 6 sushi omakase businesses in Seoul. I usually communicate with various sushi contents through the Koji TV YouTube channel, and I would like to let you know about “Sushi Omakase,” which has been requested a lot. Through this collaboration with Class 101, I would like to teach you step by step from the basics so that even those who have never tried Japanese food can cook sushi.

Enjoy the taste of authentic sushi

I'll show you the real way.

On the outside, sushi is simply a form of rice and fish attached to it, but the taste you feel when you put it in your mouth is anything but simple. Depending on how the ingredients are aged, how the rice is cooked and seasoned, and depending on the combination of shari (rice for sushi) and toppings (sushi ingredients), even sushi that starts with the same ingredients may have a different flavor at the end.

Therefore, in this class, we will discuss the core ingredients and the decisive factors that determine the taste, starting from the very basic sushi knowledge level. I didn't get it when I just looked at the recipe and followed it Once you learn how to embody the “taste of sushi,” you'll be able to enjoy sushi at home easily.

Step 3. 80% of the flavor of sushi starts with rice.

Step 4. Authentic sushi making

Once you've prepared all the ingredients (ingredients) and shari (rice), it's time to start making sushi in earnest. Taking into account the characteristics of each ingredient, I will vary the amount of rice and wasabi to make sushi with the most suitable size and balance for eating. For those who are familiar with nigirushi (a type of sushi), you will learn another type of sushi through mackerel bonzushi, a traditional form of sushi from the Kansai region of Japan. I'll make you feel confident about sushi by making various types of sushi yourself.

Step 5. Side dishes that make sushi shine even more
