An Evening of Japanese Food
Join Evelyn for a flavorful evening learning to make two Japanese-inspired favorites: Katsudon and a no-bake Matcha Tiramisu. The class begins with Katsudon, a comforting rice bowl topped with golden, crispy pork cutlet simmered in a savory-sweet sauce. Along the way, Evelyn will share the origins of pork katsu and demonstrate a special technique to achieve a perfectly crisp cutlet—without the usual kitchen mess or splattering oil that frying often brings. This method will make it easier and more enjoyable to recreate the dish at home. To round out the evening, you’ll prepare a Japanese twist on a classic Italian dessert: no-bake Matcha Tiramisu. Using clever substitutions, Evelyn will guide you through a simple yet elegant recipe that highlights the earthy richness of matcha. The result is a dessert that is not only light and refreshing but also a true crowd-pleaser, perfect for sharing during holidays or special occasions. This class is designed for cooks of all levels who want to discover approachable techniques while enjoying the taste and culture of Japanese cuisine. Come ready to cook, learn, and savor every bite.
