Sushi-Making Class in Minneapolis: 5-Course Meal

Make five dishes and eat them in two hours

A hands-on sushi-making class in Minneapolis limited to a small group, where you learn rice preparation, knife skills and rolling techniques from a local sushi chef, then enjoy the five-course menu you've prepared: Asian salad, salmon avocado roll, California roll, spicy tuna roll and mochi ice cream. The class runs two hours and accommodates dietary needs with advance notice.

The experience

You'll spend two hours in a Minneapolis kitchen learning the techniques that separate sushi-making from assembly. A local sushi chef walks you through rice preparation first (how to season it, how it feels when it's ready), then moves into knife skills and the rolling methods that hold everything together. The instruction is hands-on: you're doing the work, not watching a demonstration, and the chef adjusts the pace to keep everyone moving together.

The menu you prepare is a full meal. You start with an Asian salad of crisp vegetables and sesame-ginger soy dressing, then move through three sushi rolls: a salmon avocado roll with fresh salmon and creamy avocado; a California roll with cucumber, avocado and surimi; and a spicy tuna roll with fresh tuna and sriracha. Dessert is assorted mochi ice creams in different flavors. You eat everything you've made, and the class is designed to accommodate dietary restrictions if you mention them when you book.

The group stays small, which means the chef can watch your technique and the kitchen doesn't turn into a crowd. The venue is in Minneapolis itself, wheelchair accessible throughout, and you're welcome to bring wine or beer to pair with the meal.
