Simple Sushi at the Birmingham Community House
Whole Foods Market is teaming up with Food Coach Lisa Howard to make simple sushi at home!  During this hands-on class, we’ll explore making (rolled sushi), hand cones, and even deconstructed sushi bowls. Our handmade sushi will feature whole-grain versions of short-grain or “sticky” rice combined with cooked shrimp, cooked crab, smoked salmon, and veggies. (Lots of people think that sushi is always raw, but the term “sushi” actually refers to the technique, not the key ingredient.) Each student will also receive a rolling mat so that everyone can recreate the class recipes at home. Please call the Birmingham Community House at (248) 644-5832 to register for this class.  Class fee is $32.
