Cooking Class - Roll Decorative Kazari Maki Sushi - New York

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Learn the traditional saiku and futomaki techniques behind sushi rolls with a hidden picture inside.

Discover the colorful art of kazari maki-zushi in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Hiroyo, where sushi becomes a canvas and each roll hides a picture inside. Slice the roll open and a flower or character appears in the cross-section – a result that looks complex but comes together through a surprisingly simple, playful process.

You'll learn the traditional saiku and futomaki techniques behind it, laying down small components in just the right order before rolling once to reveal the design. No sushi experience is needed, and most guests are genuinely surprised by what they manage on their first try. You'll work with colors drawn from everyday Japanese ingredients rather than dyes before cutting your rolls open together and tasting what you made. Book this sushi class today.

Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.
