It was a very enjoyable experience! Although it’s in my neighborhood, I got to tour a noodle factory that I normally wouldn’t have a chance to see, and I made my own noodles by choosing the dough and the cutting blade I liked. It was a very interesting and valuable experience. After that, we moved to Akiko-san’s home, where we started by preparing the filling for the gyoza, wrapping them, and then cooking them with crispy wings, just like in a restaurant! The salad with fried baby sardines and mizuna was also exceptional. We then boiled our own ramen noodles, added various toppings, and enjoyed a luxurious bowl of rich, tonkotsu-style ramen! To finish, we made matcha shiratama cream anmitsu, which was a perfect course. There were no foreign participants this time, but this has inspired me to study English, and I hope to interact with international guests next time. Thank you for the wonderful time!
