Wa-Sho! Learn. Cook. Eat Japanese! (2nd-5th)

The Wa-Sho program (https://www.wa-shokuiku.org) is an initiative from TABLE FOR TWO USA, a non-profit organization promoting healthy eating around the world. Wa-Sho combines the Japanese words “Washoku” which refers to Japanese food and, “Shokuiku”, food education. It is a series of hands-on classes on Japanese food and food culture for American students. Students will learn about food broadly from how to make iconic Japanese foods such as onigiri (rice ball), sushi rolls, miso soup, the importance of appreciation for those who both prepare and grow our food and food related concerns such as food waste and what actions they can take in their daily life.
