Japanese people love noodles; they eat them at lunch, dinner and snacktime and after drinks. Udon, soba, somen and kuzu are only a few of the many types of noodles found in Japanese kitchens, made with different types of flours. In this class, Japanese native and chef Mamie Nishide will introduce you to handmade and store-bought noodles cooked with traditional styles and flavors. You will make zaru soba (cold buckwheat noodles and wasabi dipping sauce); tempura udon (udon noodles topped with tempura and served with hot soup); kare udon (udon noodles in curry-flavored broth); hiyashi chuka soba (cold chuka noodles topped with julienned vegetables, egg pancakes and chicken served with a citrus soy soup); ramen (chuka noodles topped with roasted pork and vegetables in hot broth); and for dessert, mochi and fruits in yuzu syrup.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.

Any time is the right time to brush up on your chocolate skills! In this part hands-on and part demonstration-based class, students will review the basics of chocolate tempering and formulating chocolate centers, with an array of fillings and confections for use in truffles, molded chocolates, and candies. It features recipes you’ll want to make year-round – and will make you everybody’s favorite holiday house guest!
The sauces you will learn to make in this class are not just for special-occasion dishes you'll prepare once a year. Relying on pantry ingredients and reflecting the contemporary cook's lifestyle, they are meant to easily take a grilled meat or poached fish from simple to superlative with a pan reduction, beurre blanc or a pesto. You will master these techniques by making sauteed steak with red wine reduction sauce; poached salmon with beurre blanc and pasta with pesto.
