    Hands-on workshop for Japanese soul food

    A true taste trip to Japan! Join us to discover the world of udon including dashi stock and mentsuyu sauce; the backbone of Japanese cuisine. 

    In 2019, I spent a month in Osaka, Japan and learned to make udon from a third-generation noodle master. The bouncy and silky texture of freshly made udon is so worth the effort. Thus the udon workshop was born.

        A workout in the kitchen.

        I had such fun working up an appetite while stomping on my noodles. Who knew noodles could be so strenuous?!? We were rewarded with delicious food and wonderful recipes that I have already recreated at home to rave reviews from my family. I was also lucky enough to pack my freezer with homemade udon noodles from the leftovers from the class.

        Hard work but such fun!

        I have a new found respect for the Udon Noodle! We had a blast during this class making our own Udon noodles from scratch and could even take some dough home to practice. The food we ate was world class as always with the most delicious flavors! Rany is great at teaching you exactly what you need to know to make the recipes at home. I really enjoyed this course!
