Join us in the Teaching Kitchen for a workshop on the art of creating sushi. You'll work alongside Chef Matthew and start with butchering salmon to get the perfect cuts. You'll learn about the perfect rice and key sauces. Everyone will perfect their technique by making several rolls, "maki," plus you'll learn "temaki" aka hand rolls.
Chef Matthew Stansbury's resume is long and includes baking, savory dishes and sushi making. While he's a seasoned culinarian, his love of Japanese cuisine has a longer history. Matthew grew up cooking with his Japanese grandmother. His Cajun-Japanese fusion heritage has left him with quite the skillset and palate! While his sushi rolls are insta-worthy with modern appeal, his understanding of Japanese cuisine and its intricate flavor profiles is in his genes.
ON THE MENU:
Temaki (Hand Rolls)
Futomaki (Seaweed on the Outside)
Uramaki (Rice on the Outside)
Eel Sauce and Spicy Mayo
Perfect Rice and Crunchy Tempura Flakes
Miso Soup
Hands-on cooking classes at Red Stick Spice are structured as "divide and conquer." Each group cooks a different dish on the menu, and those efforts combine to produce a fabulous meal in the end. Comradery and teamwork pair up to produce a delectable spread. Instructors move through the room, helping each group. Instructors also stop and demo multiple teachable moments along the way.
This class is for participants 13 and up. Teenagers must be accompanied by an adult; both the teenager and accompanying adult must purchase a class seat.
CLASS TRANSFER POLICY: No Refunds. If you are unable to attend this class, you may request a transfer to move your reservation to another class. However these requests must be received seven (7) working days in advance of the class date. If your request is made after seven (7) working days, we will not be able to accommodate your transfer request. You may, however, pass along your place in this class to another person. Planning, food purchases and staffing takes place well in advance of each cooking class; therefore, we are unable to offer refunds.
