Japanese Cuisine Complete
Course Curriculum
The "Japanese Cuisine Complete Course" is an 8-week course consisting of 2 weeks of "Ramen Professional," 4 weeks of "Japanese Cuisine Course," and 2 weeks of "Yakitori Professional," allowing students to learn a combination of three popular Japanese menus.
Two-week Ramen course
Ramen comes in many unique varieties. It is a creative combination of soup, noodles, and various toppings.
There are dried soups, seafood soups, shellfish soups, shrimp soups, pork bone soups, back fat soups, chicken soups...and many different kinds of noodles. Many unique toppings are available, including char siu pork, braised pork, roasted pork, braised egg, vegetables, shrimp, seaweed, and more.
In the one-week course, students learn basic ramen and cooking, while in the two-week course, students learn popular ramen, unique dishes, and their own ramen research, in addition to the content of the one-week course. Students will also learn how to prepare side orders such as gyoza, wontons, grilled pork, braised pork, vegetable dishes, fried rice, and other dishes essential to a ramen restaurant.
Prospective ramen restaurant owners will receive lessons on how to open a ramen restaurant and make it profitable.
*Vegetarian, Vegan, Halal Menu:
This ramen course does not support these. The reason is that without the strong flavor of pork and chicken, it is impossible to extract the best umami from the ramen.
We will offer a separate vegetarian, vegan, and halal ramen course starting in 2024.
Coming soon.
