What you'll do
Learn the art of making delicious Japanese Gyoza (dumplings) in this HANDS-ON and FUN workshop, so you can make your favourite dishes at home.
Follow detailed demonstrations by celebrated chef Yoshiko Takeuchi, who has had over twenty years experience and has frequented some of Sydney's top kitchens, authored two cookbooks and worked on shows like The Biggest Loser.
Did you know?
* Most Japanese restaurants use lots of MSG in their cooking!
* These restaurants also don’t use traditional ingredients meaning the food loses taste AND nutrition!
But don’t worry! This class is MSG free and we will use only traditional, high-quality Japanese ingredients to make our food yummy and healthy.
You will follow traditional methods replicable at home, including essential Japanese seasonings, cooking techniques and a variety of yummy recipes.
Some examples from our Superfoods Gyoza class menu:
- 4 types of gyoza fillings
- How to correctly fold and pleat gyoza
- How to correctly cook gyoza
- How to freeze gyoza
- Two types of gyoza dipping sauce
- Rice sandwich (onigirazu)
- How to make seaweed salad w/ Japanese style dressing
*All classes served with alkaline water & Matcha green tea
N.B. Also, all of Yoshiko's classes (except the "Japanese Cooking Class (Advanced)") are suitable for vegans.

Hansen Yap • Jul 2023
It's definitely a nice class if you had no experience before with dumplings and gyozas.
Jess Goh • Jul 2023
I really enjoyed Yoshiko's communication style and her passion for alkaline way of eating. Her assistants were very friendly and supportive in how I need to cook. I really had a fun time with the participants and the crew. The meal was super delicious and very happy that it's plant based as I'm vegan. I'm definitely coming back again for another cooking class to dive deeper into Japanese healthy way of cooking
Dana Silang • May 2022
Yoshiko was a very engaging and enthusiastic teacher! Class participated well and responded well to the teacher.
Julie Pritchard • May 2022
We loved the class with Yoshiko specially since my daughter who doesn’t like kale loved it! Highly recommend for those looking to learn the art of Japanese dumpling making in a light and relaxed environment. Yoshiko is knowledgeable and funny , she clearly has a passion for healthy cooking and passing on her skills to others. Would go back and do the other classes with her.
Bella Epshteyn • Mar 2022
I loved the class. Looking forward to making gyozas at home.
Yoshiko is very knowledgeable & energetic.
Definitely would recommend to my friends.
Jonathan Papworth • Jan 2021
Yoshiko was engaging, and did so well to involve everyone. Had a great time!
Maybe clearly define what tables/teams cook which gyoza at the start to help with the flow of the class, but genuinely everything went fantastic
Luke Burlet • Jan 2021
overall , great. very minor comment is that the making of soup was a bit too brief. but we can get from recipe supplied.
Helen Wright • Sep 2020
Teacher was very interactive, made everyone involved participate which was great.
Provide excellent handy tips.
Sally Ross • Sep 2020
Great food and great fun. Yoshiko was lively and funny and taught us a lot about new foods. We will definitely make gyoza at home.

Hannah Carrick • Dec 2019
Yoshiko was the best teacher! We learnt so much and will definitely be coming back for more lessons.
Peta Denning • Mar 2019
The Superfood Gyoza Cooking workshop was fun and informative.
I couldn't believe that you could cook so many different dishes in such a short time.
When I looked at the ingredients I wasn't sure that they would have much taste but they all tasted great and were very filling.
Yoshiko is a great teacher and she had us all engaged in the class at all times.
I would recommend the class to anyone that wants to learn more about healthy Japanese cooking or would just like a great time.
Julia Huxley • Feb 2019
Unique and fun outing for our large family. Everyone was kept busy and entertained. Yoshiko is an excellent teacher. Very happy with the feast we made.
