Discover the Best Sushi Making Classes in NYC

Sushi is an ancient, iconic dish enjoyed in Japan for centuries. It originated over 2,000 years ago and has since become a beloved part of Japanese cuisine enjoyed worldwide. But it’s not just a simple food, as sushi is a complex art form with its own traditions, techniques, and ingredients. The basics of sushi include knowing how to choose and prepare different types of fish, correctly season sushi rice, select nori (seaweed), and make flavorful combinations of ingredients. While this may sound intimidating, plenty of sushi making classes are available in NYC to help you learn the art of sushi. Many of these courses are geared toward beginners and focus on creating an enjoyable experience.

Why You Should Learn Sushi Making in NYC

New York City is a cultural melting pot, and with it comes a diverse array of cuisine from around the world. Sushi is no exception, as restaurants in NYC serve up some of the most delicious and authentic sushi dishes in the United States. Taking a sushi making course in NYC is the perfect way to learn about the traditional techniques and flavors of this beloved Japanese cuisine from some of the most experienced chefs in the city. 

Learning sushi making is also an excellent hobby, as it can be a creative outlet, and you can even start hosting sushi parties or dinner nights with friends. Research shows that individuals with a hobby have lower levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. So it can also be a great way to stay healthy and happy in a busy city. Plus, once you’ve mastered the basics of sushi making, you can explore more advanced techniques and design your own signature dishes. There's also an opportunity to connect with a larger community of food enthusiasts. Sushi making classes in NYC are a great way to meet like-minded people with a shared interest in delicious food and diverse cultures, which can benefit mental and physical health.

In-Person Sushi Making Classes & Schools in NYC

There are numerous in-person sushi making classes in NYC, ranging from general lessons to more specialized courses. These classes are taught by experienced chefs who can help you understand the nuances of the craft and instruct students on how to recreate classic dishes. 

The Make Your Own Sushi course from CocuSocial Cooking Classes is for those 21 and older and has an average class size of just 20 people. This hands-on, interactive class teaches participants how to create a salmon, veggie, and shrimp tempura roll in just 2 hours. The teacher also covers the proper way to make sushi rice, selecting sushi-grade fish and seasoning techniques. CocuSocial Cooking Classes is a well-known provider of cooking and baking courses across Manhattan and the surrounding boroughs. This class is held at Red Hook Brooklyn, located on Van Dyke Street, and students are welcome to bring their own beverages.

Another top-rated course is the Hand Rolled Sushi class from CocuSocial Cooking Classes. Held at the iconic Hell's Kitchen in Manhattan, this class is ideal for anyone who wants to learn how to create hand rolls with a range of delicious ingredients. Participants will receive interactive, hands-on instructions on proper rolling techniques, making ponzu sauce, and cooking with the special catch of the day. Groups that book together will be in the same cooking group, allowing friends and family to connect over their mutual love of sushi. Outside drinks are not permitted in the class, though options will be available to purchase in the restaurant.

Those seeking a more specialized option should consider the DIY Sushi + Dumplings class from Home Cooking New York in SoHo, Manhattan. This $100 class is an ideal option for teens and adults, as it's geared towards anyone 16 and older. An average class size of just ten participants allows a greater focus on detailed instruction and provides an opportunity for beginners to get with the basics of sushi making. The instructor covers everything from the basics to creating versions of everyone's restaurant favorites, including assorted sushi rolls, vegetarian and pork dumplings, and a fresh salad with ginger dressing. Students gather at the end of the class to enjoy a meal together, with BYOB welcome for those 21+. It's a social and enjoyable experience perfect for a birthday celebration or special event with friends.

Virtual Sushi Making Classes & Schools

With how hectic life can be in NYC, online sushi making classes are an excellent way to learn this craft without having to leave the comfort of your own home. These courses run live over Zoom or a similar platform, allowing users to connect from nearly any location. There are several advantages to taking virtual sushi making classes over in-person options, including greater flexibility and the ability to rewatch lessons and still ask questions in real time. There's no need to find a physical campus, commute, or worry about missing classes due to travel. 

On the other hand, there are some drawbacks to keep in mind when choosing between virtual classes and in-person ones. One significant difference is in the number of participants per class. Most virtual courses have much larger class sizes than their in-person counterparts, which can lead to less personal instruction. Additionally, staying engaged and interacting with the instructor when taking a course online can be more difficult. 

There are numerous online sushi making classes for those in NYC that cover a range of topics from sushi basics to advanced techniques. Instructors on these courses often have decades of experience in the industry, so students can feel confident in the quality of instruction they will receive. Food Craft offers the Virtual Vegetarian Sushi Rolling class, which is entirely online and teaches participants how to make vegan sushi rolls. The class is two hours long and includes a kit with all the necessary supplies (for creating sushi rice, spicy mayo, and uramaki) sent directly to participants. However, participants must have some essential kitchen tools on hand, such as a peeler, measuring spoons, bowls, and a chopping board.

You can also take the Japanese Online Class #2 with Aiko from The League of Kitchens. This class teaches participants how to make hand rolls and flavorful dipping sauces in the Temaki Zushi-style. The course covers the key components of hand rolls, including how to make miso soup and season vegetables. Chef Aiko encourages an open social environment during her classes where students can ask questions, have great conversations, and receive helpful critiques. The recipes taught in the class are from her family and require participants to purchase ingredients beforehand. A shopping list is provided to students, including items found at any local grocery store.
