Let’s experience the traditional Japanese home-cooked cuisine, which is one of the secrets of Japanese longevity!
“Ichiju-sansai” consists of one soup and three simple and healthy dishes made from vegetables, tofu, meat, or fish. In Aichi prefecture these dishes are seasoned with locally produced seasonings such as soy sauce, mirin, sake, miso, and vinegar. Some of the items you will make and eat are red miso flavored chicken, Japanese rolled omelets, rice balls, and how to make dashi stock at home like a Japanese home cook. And more!!
You’ll also learn to make matcha shiratama, which is a deliciously sticky rice cake ball covered in sweet matcha sauce.

I was born and raised in Nagoya City and like cooking and teaching how to cook, especially Japanese food. Over the years I have learned many recipes from my mother and my mother-in-law and studied at cooking school.
I have a cooking license, am a Confectionery Hygiene Master, and a vegetable sommelier. I opened a natural food shop about 50 years ago and started a healthy dessert and natural yeast bread cooking class in 2002.
I had a pleasant time cooking with my son’s host mother in the US. This experience made me want to teach Japanese cooking to foreigners.
I welcome everyone and look forward to teaching you.
