ORINIGIRI Workshop 12: Let’s Craft Japanese Food!

May 14 @ 1:03 pm

Everyone knows Japanese cuisine is filled with delicious dishes and healthy flavors! To create a tasty Japanese dish,  a lot of “crafting” is done in the cooking process to create a more enjoyable and perfected meal. In this event, we will hold three workshops on the theme of “crafting and experiencing familiar Japanese food.”

What you will be doing in this workshop:

  • Learn about traditional Japanese food, such as onigiri and miso soup
  • Make your own ORINIGIRI, decoration seaweed and miso balls
  • Admire and take pictures of your creations

ORINIGIRI

ORINIGIRI is a new type of art (and way of eating!) that combines the fun features of “Origami” and “Onigiri (Rice balls).” The huge difference between Onigiri (rice balls) and ORINIGIRI is whether is how it entertains you through the creation. ORINIGIRI includes a folding process as a form of entertainment, which is meant to be a fun experience. You will often see this kind of entertaining making process not in only food but in the whole culture of Japan.

Decoration Seaweed

Japanese people enjoy cutting seaweed into cute artistic shapes and patterns. In this workshop, you can try creating your own form of seaweed art work by using craft punchers and colorful rice.

Miso ball

Miso ball is round ball made of miso and other Japanese ingredients. Miso soup can be made easily by melting the miso. In addition, miso balls can be easily made by rolling decorating it with other tasty ingredients.
