Japanese Teatime Ouchigohan
Join us for a special edition of the family-friendly online Japanese cooking class series おうちごはん！Ouchigohan! – Japanese Home Cooking. We will start by learning how to make a type of wagashi, which a traditional Japanese confection that pairs well with tea. Cook along with our instructor, Deb Samuels, to make daifuku, a mochi ball with anko or sweet red bean paste filling.
After preparing our treat, we will be joined by Tomoko Honda of Ippodo Tea to learn all about the teas that they make, and how Japanese people enjoy them in their daily lives. Honda will teach us the differences between three kinds of classic Japanese teas; sencha, matcha, and hojicha, and how to best prepare them.
This is a great opportunity to learn more about everyday Japanese Teatime as it is enjoyed by families and friends in a relaxed setting.
This ouchigohan online event occurred on February 4th, 2024.
