Fun Sushi Making Class With a Local Chef in Chicago

Skip the sushi counter and discover how satisfying it is to roll your own. In this hands-on cooking class, you'll turn simple ingredients into fresh, restaurant-worthy sushi with techniques that are surprisingly easy to master. Start by preparing perfectly seasoned sushi rice, then layer nori with crisp vegetables and flavorful fillings before learning how to roll, shape and slice clean, even pieces using a bamboo mat. Along the way, you'll build confidence with knife work, ingredient placement and rolling techniques that keep every bite balanced. Whether it's your first attempt or you've always wanted to improve your skills, every step is relaxed and beginner-friendly. Then sit down and enjoy the sushi you created yourself. Takeout might start feeling a little less exciting after this.
