Ramen!  That richly-seasoned noodle soup from Japan, whose broth should send shivers down your spine with delight. If you live near a good ramen shop, you are in luck. If not, then consider yourself equally lucky enough to have an excuse to make it from scratch, chewy noodles and all. 

• Chicken-Miso Ramen Broth
• Homemade Ramen Noodles
• Crispy Pork Belly
• Soy-Marinated Jammy Eggs
• Ramen Accoutrements (scallions, bok choy, nori, chile oil)

Everything you ever need to know about choosing, storing, sharpening, holding, and using the most important tool in the kitchen. We will have 8-inch chef's knives for you to practice on, but you are also welcome to bring your own knife. 

• Included in the price is a * knife sharpening stone of your own *, which we will teach you how to use flawlessly before you leave. 
• And so you have something to cook (and eat!) with all your expertly chopped ingredients, we'll also make a meal to share at the end of class, usually a minestrone soup or a vegetable stir-fry.
