Tokyo College of Sushi and Washoku, London is the first cookery college exclusively dedicated to teaching authentic Japanese cooking techniques and skills in the UK. Our approach begins with teaching how to correctly select and identify your ingredients, adapting to local cultures and environments. As an example, Japanese cooking employs soft water with fewer minerals, enhancing the extraction of UMAMI flavour from the ingredients. In contrast, many European countries use hard water, which impacts the extraction of UMAMI, even when employing the same ingredients. It's differences such as these that we teach our students, giving them the knowledge to create truly authentic Japanese dishes.

Job Opportunities: Collaborations with Japanese restaurants provide students with job opportunities and valuable hands-on experience.
