Beyond Sushi: Culinary Japan From Classical to Modern

Sat., May 12, 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.




Japanese cuisine has been wowing the rest of the world for centuries, while
Japanese chefs at home have modified their traditional methods to
incorporate new ingredients and new food-preparation techniques. In this
tantalizing, palate-tingling exploration of Japanese cuisine, Iron Chef
Masaharu Morimoto presents culinary demonstrations with a cherry blossom
theme, celebrity Chef Roy Yamaguchi shares cooking tips, and other
specialists place traditional fare and the global culinary exchange in
historical perspective as they provide a spectacular evocation of Japanese
food. Guided tastings of essential Japanese ingredients; dazzling food
demonstrations with tastings; a traditional lunch; and samplings of Japanese
beer, sake, tea, and confectionary take us way beyond sushi and far beyond
fusion to delight aficionados and novices alike.

made by others but failing that, you'll have to make them yourself.
