Let’s welcome the new season with a trio of delicious spring dishes!

Join Table for Two, a network of Japan-America Societies, and the US JET Alumni Association for a virutal Japanese cooking class - Ouchigohan!!

Saturday, April 25

5:00 PM ET | 4:00 PM CT

JASA or other JAS/JS Members: $10

Non-Members: $15

This month’s menu continues our #EdamameChamp programming with Salmon Takikomi Gohan, a comforting one-pot rice dish studded with bright green edamame. Rice, salmon, vegetables, and savory seasonings cook together in a rice cooker or on the stovetop, creating a flavorful and nourishing Japanese-style pilaf!

We’ll also prepare Broccolini with Miso Dressing, inspired by nanohana, Japan’s delicate spring vegetable. The tender broccolini pairs beautifully with a rich, savory miso sauce that highlights the fresh flavors of the season.

To finish, we’ll make Mitarashi Dango, one of Japan’s most beloved traditional sweets. These chewy dumplings are made with silken tofu for extra tenderness and drizzled with a glossy sweet soy glaze—the perfect balance of sweet and savory.

Join us as we cook, taste, and celebrate the flavors of spring—right from the comfort of your own kitchen.
