Indoindians sushi class was a fun filled event held at Hotel JW Marriott Jakarta. 25 participants had a great time learning this Japanese finger food with the experts chefs. Participants worked on their individual workstations with all the ingredients and supplies provided. Not only were they able to make sushi with a professional chef but also enjoy the sushi they made.
First and foremost, the sushi chef teaches the class on how to make and season the rice to make the sushi.

The process is actually very simple, for the participants lay down the filling ingredients on the nori (seaweed sheet) which is then rolled with the help of a bamboo mat and. Once rolled, which is the tricky part, it can be cut into sections to be served along with soy sauce, pickled ginger and wasabi.

The steps are almost complete, for all they need to do is roll the sushi gently to the shape of a cylinder then cut it up. Rolling sushi is one of the most difficult aspects while making sushi as there needs to be a special technique to make the roll even.
