Start with Japanese Teishoku Cooking Classes.
Japanese Teishoku Cooking
The Japanese are renowned to be meticulous in everything they do.
That includes how they make their food.
It is no more a surprise that a lot of people in Japan live longer than anyone else on Earth.
This is due to the fact that the Japanese pay very close attention to the benefits they get from different kinds of ingredients.
Also, the way they cook plays a very important role in preserving the nutrients and flavour in the food they create.
The Japanese word “Teishoku” which is pronounced as “tay-show-Ku” means meal set and some people prefer this style of Japanese cuisine as “Japanese Bento”.
Teishoku is usually a set meal that consists of the main food item (e.g. chicken, tempura, pork, ) and a combination of white rice or noodles (like soba, udon or ramen), miso soup (called “sozai”), and pickled vegetables (called “Tsukemono”).
These are just examples of meal sets and many more combinations and food varieties can be created in a delicious “Teishoku” meal of course.
Learning the Craft of Cooking Japanese Set Meals
The Japanese like their food simple yet presented in an almost elaborate way.
The presentation is one of the fundamentals of Japanese cuisine.
It is their way to entice and give a sneak peek of what the meals could offer.
Just imagine how mouth-watering it could get just by merely looking at those carefully laid meals on bento boxes.
How could anyone forget that distinct flavor packed with a whole lot of balanced surprise?
Only the Japanese cuisine has that robust combination of clean taste and unique presentation.
The good news is, this type of cuisine can be mastered by anyone with culinary schools here in Singapore offering classes and even curriculums for the aspiring professionals.
