What you'll do

Matcha is a special form of green tea, specially grown and prepared for deeper flavour. It is the food highest in antioxidants, and helps with weight-loss and general well-being. However, its nutritional properties are easily destroyed if not prepared with care.

In this class, you'll learn, cook and eat your way through delicious matcha dishes, including:
* Matcha coconut fudge
* Matcha Blacmange
* Two-colour Mochi ball with Yuzu & Matcha An-paste
* Cold Soba with Matcha Broth
* Matcha Popcorn
* Yuzu Matcha Mocktail
* Organic Matcha green tea and alkaline mineral water

No washing or other boring stuff involved - all you'll do is learn, cook, and eat!
You'll get hands-on practice, following detailed and easy-to-follow demonstrations from Yoshiko.

You'll also get to take back practical and yummy recipes.

I had a great time at the Matcha Lovers cooking class last Saturday. Yoshiko is such an entertaining host with a wicked sense of humour, making the whole cooking experience really fun. I’ve never enjoyed being scolded about my poor cooking skills so much! Yoshiko’s extensive knowledge about quality ingredients is very impressive, and I appreciate her sharing her anecdotes and experiences with the class when we sat down to eat. I feel like I learnt a lot about nutrition in general in addition to the benefits of integrating matcha into my diet. I highly recommend joining one of Yoshiko’s classes and look forward to my next session with her team.

The teacher is very affirmative and knowledgeable. The class was fun. However, it will be better if all the ingredients have already been prepared and measured then this way it will save time and mistakes.

Yoshiko the teacher really knows her food and her matcha. She gave us a good overview of the background of matcha. The whole cooking process was pretty fun, and we learnt what was important when it comes to using matcha to cook. We made soba in matcha dashi soup, matcha blancmange with adzuki beans, matcha mochi, matcha coconut fudge, and a Yuzu matcha mocktail. We finished every bit of the food that we made from scratch - very yummy! Environment was clean and pleasant, though I wished we could have a cooking station each so we could be more hands-on. Overall though, we absolutely had a lot of fun and would recommend it to people!
