We had wonderful time with Miwa-san learning how to make miso soup and Tofu dishes and especially how many small details make a perfect result. Very recommended.

We enjoyed the class very much. We surely learned that what appears as "simple" when one goes out, hides behind alot of details and careful preparation of the ingredients over long time making the perfect Tofu and Miso dishes taste so perfect. Very recommended.
A beautiful discovery and a real treat!

We had a very pleasant time guided by the warm Miwa. She welcomed us to her home, where we cooked and enjoyed delicious dishes at Tofu. Miwa is a caring hostess, very well organized and educational. We have had a lot of discussions about our cultures, she is very open and speaks perfect English. We highly recommend this cooking course.

What a gift Miwa has and is! She is the heart of this experience and gave us such a unique opportunity to have a wonderful conversation, a wonderful meal, and learn a new skill (new ingredients and methods of preparation) that all revolved around our host country. The experience gave us a nice contrast in our travels, a respite from the crowds and the city, as we soaked in the simplicity of a Japanese apartment, the appreciation of the foods and the connection with a local. I cannot recommend this experience highly enough.
Miwa's Perfect 5-Star Tofu Cooking Class

Miwa was a very communicative, helpful and accomodating teacher before, during and after the tofu cooking class. She cooks like an angel. Her English is great. She is very organized and does a little prep work before the class so that the class runs smoothly. The tofu dishes compromised a very delicious lunch that I will be repeating at home to show my friends how to use tofu in ways new to me. Beyond the helpful explanations of ingredients and processes it was fun to talk to Miwa about other aspects of her life and Japanese contemporary life. She also helped me figure out how to get a train pass. In short, she is a wonderful cooking teacher who goes above and beyond and anyone who can take her class will be very happy they did. (and they will be well fed)

Miwako-san's tofu/vegetarian cooking class was relaxed, personal and fun, but also well-organized, carefully planned out, and educational. For example, I learned that the differences in color and saltiness of white and darker miso is the result of greater or lesser ratios of rice and fermented soy beans in the preparation of the miso. We learned many useful tips, and receive recipe sheets for dishes we made. Lots of photos followed by email. Highly recommended!
A treat...

Welcomed in her own home, Miwa introduces me to the taste pleasures of tofu cooking. There are so many varieties, both in the texture and in the way it is prepared that I learned a lot... and enjoyed it. I can only recommend this kind of experience with Miwa, who transmits her passion for cooking without counting. Everything is gathered to spend a moment of simple and pure sharing.
Miwako's wonderful cooking class!

My husband and I are long-time fans of Japanese cuisine and we were eager to learn how to make dishes for our family. We were lucky enough to attend Miwako's cooking class! Our 2-year old daughter is obsessed with Tofu, so we took the tofu making class. Thanks to Miwako, we were able to learn various ways of cooking Tofu and could see how many different dishes can be made with it! I am looking forward to cooking these various types of Tofu at home. Miwako made the class super fun, especially because she is so kind and friendly.
wonderful cooking tips in a beautiful authetic setting

Had the pleasure to attend Miwa san's Tofu cooking class this last weekend - it was great, Miwa san is a very attentive and patient tutor and I got some great pointers and instruction on Japanese ingredients that I didn't even know I didn't know. Highly recommend this class for the home cook who wants to expand their repertoire into delicious vegetarian Japanese cuisine. Thank you Miwa san for your hospitality.
