So far, we have introduced some testimonials from former students who took our Sushi Masterclass -Foundation- Course. Anybody from home chefs to experienced sushi chefs has taken advantage of the course, and we have seen the great demand and importance over the years. There is so much to learn/relearn in the basics of sushi-making skills and knowledge through the sushi training course. We are very confident that you can benefit from this class even though you have years of experience.
Then, when you finish the course, you will have some options. If you wish to continue working on your skills, the Sushi Masterclass -Advanced- Course can be your next ideal step. Here, find out what you can expect in the course and why you want to tackle it to further your skills.
What Kind of Sushi Training Is Offered in the Advanced Class?
Our advanced course is perfect for chefs with years of experience in the sushi world or someone who has completed the foundation course. The advanced course includes lessons covering more varieties than the other courses regarding fish, seasoning/preparation methods, and more.
Below is a detailed comparison between the two courses in each section.
Fish Variations
The foundation course simply focuses on two kinds of fish: salmon and tuna. On the other hand, the advanced course offers sushi-making techniques for sea bream, mackerel, squid, shrimp, egg, sardine, and more. Students will also learn a wide range of uses for tuna and salmon, which the foundation course does not teach.
Seasoning Variations
When you hear the word “seasoning,” you might not get a clear idea of what it means. The fact is, there is more than one kind of preparation method for the fish. The basic style of nigiri is to use the fish as is, but you can offer nigiri in more styles.
The advanced course teaches zuke (marinating method with soy sauce), aburi (searing method), shime (curing method with vinegar), and aging method. You might have seen or eaten seared salmon nigiri. This is one of the examples you can learn from the course.
Sauce Variation and More
While soy sauce is definitely the main sauce for sushi, it is not the only one you see on a sushi plate. The advanced course shows you how to make sauces other than soy sauce to enhance your nigiri. Besides, you can also access the lesson on how to make fish soup stock made from fish scraps you get during the sushi-making process.
Do I Get Feedback?
So, what are the benefits of this course? In the certificate plan of the foundation course, students have five live feedback sessions with our master chef in addition to other perks. Will there be live feedback sessions in this advanced course?
The answer is yes. In fact, it provides you with six live feedback sessions with our master chef. Let’s find out what you will receive during the course below:
- Full access to all the materials of the sushi advanced course (videos, written instructions, recipes, self-learning support tools, etc.).
- 6 live feedback sessions with a Japanese sushi master chef, offered in English.
- Personalized feedback from master chefs.
- Life-long access to our exclusive Facebook community of international Japanese cuisine chefs where you can ask for professional advice.
- Certificate of completion.
As many of our students commented, the certificate could give you more opportunities to advance your career.
Who Is This Course For?
As mentioned above, our foundation course benefits many people with different backgrounds. For example, our former student with extensive experience as a sushi chef told us his opinions about the foundation course. He said,
“…there is always room to learn something new. The course helped me go back to the basics and fill the knowledge gap that I had. Overall, I learned a lot from the foundation course and am glad I took it. The foundation course surely helps an experienced chef like me earn a more solid foundation in the art of sushi with the help of real master chef teachers.”
Then, he moved on to the advanced course to further his skills. This pattern is ideal for those keen to establish a foundation of sushi-making skills and improve their skills to serve as professional sushi chefs rather than just to learn advanced skills and techniques.
