We’re bringing our popular Mochi Making Workshop with Yukiko Zinke to online! Join us Sunday, February 14th at 2pm for this fun class where you’ll learn how to make Daifuku Mochi, Ice Cream Mochi, and Mochi Donuts with matcha glaze using traditional and modern methods.
What is mochi, you ask? It is a Japanese rice cake made of mochigome, a short-grain japonica rice. The rice is pounded into paste and molded into the desired shape (often with other ingredients). In Japan it is traditionally made in a ceremony called mochitsuki.
Mochi is naturally gluten free so this class is great for those with any gluten sensitivities.
Yukiko Zinke grew up in Fukushima, Japan where she ran a ramen restaurant with her mother, whom she learned to cook from. She has 20+ years of experience making mochi, a special treat enjoyed during festivals and traditional events. Currently she runs a cooking school, based in San Leandro which she stared with her daughter in 2016.
WHAT: Mochi Making Workshop: $50 per person
WHEN: Sunday, February 14th, 2pm-4pm PST
WHERE: Online via Zoom. You will receive a link a few days prior to the class.
Supplies and ingredients are sourced by attendees for this workshop.
