What You’ll Do

There’s a lot more to making sushi than simply not cooking some fish. Throughout this class, professional chef and culinary educator Nikki Gilbert demystifies nearly every step of the sushi-making process, from picking the right fish at the supermarket to savoring the last bite. Gilbert’s classes aren’t all about work—they are equal parts education and eating, with each student feasting on their own creations before heading home with a full stomach.

  Learn how to shop for staples of any sushi pantry, and master the art of selecting the best fresh fish.

• Rice 101
  Gilbert offers tips on making sushi rice, a crucial element of a great roll.

• Sushi’s Greatest Hits
