Trust me, it’ll completely change the way you see tofu! ⚪🍵Imagine stepping into a quiet Japanese home, welcomed by the sweetest older couple. A small pan of soy milk heats in front of you. Slowly, a thin film forms… and you lift it with chopsticks. Sounds easy? Not at all 😅 But with each new layer, you get another try, tasting it with yuzu, matcha, or smoked salt. Light, nutty, and unforgettable.Between yuba-making, you’re served a full-course meal: tofu dishes, sushi, tempura, even dessert sprinkled with kinako. Every bite delicate, seasonal, and beautifully plated. The hosts? So sweet! Stories, laughter, even jokes about how the husband didn’t like yuba as a kid. It feels less like a class and more like visiting family.And to end, a calming tea whisking ritual… the perfect finish to one of the most heartwarming cultural experiences you can have in Japan.🙋‍♀️ Curious to book this experience?
