On arrival you will receive a welcome briefing and refreshments before being shown basic ingredients and cooking techniques.
You will make Sushi Rice, cut the fish (sashimi), make accompanying dips and several types of sushi:

Edomae-zushi or Nigiri-zushi ~ pieces of raw fish over vinegared rice balls.

Temaki or hand rolls ~ hand-rolled cones made from nori, sushi rice and ingredients. Inverted Sushi ~ ie with the rice outside, rolling with climgfilm and the mat and dousing with sesame seeds.

Tamago~ Beef steak marinated in teriyaki sauce, cooked, cooled, thinly sliced, then spread with sushi rice etc and rolled in thin omelette.

Tazuna-sushi ~ This is again an inverted sushi (rice outside/clingfim technique). They are quite a large diameter and prawns, omelette, cucumber etc are pressed into the outside.
