Have you ever tasted authentic Japanese tofu? Unlike tofu commonly found overseas, Japanese tofu is softer, smoother, and enjoyed fresh, often in dishes like chilled tofu (hiyayakko) or miso soup.

Handmade tofu, crafted directly from soybeans, is even richer, creamier, and more flavorful than mass-produced varieties. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll make tofu from scratch, first tasting it as is, then trying it with three specially selected seasonings.

Supervised by a Registered Dietitian, this Kyoto masterclass delves into the history of tofu, the unique qualities of different soybeans, and the secrets of traditional tofu-making.

Take your Japanese cooking skills to the next level while experiencing the pure, natural flavors of handmade tofu.
