8/30 | 🥧 Wafu Miso Nectarine Pie Workshop *VIRTUAL*
Date: Saturday, August 30, 2025
Time: 9:00AM to 11:30AM PST
Location: Zoom link will be provided after sign-up, along with recipes, ingredient list, and instructions, so you can do some prepping in advance.
Workshop Description:
Join me and my professional pastry chef sister, Fuyuko, for a hands-on workshop featuring their award-winning Wafu Miso Fruit Pie recipe featured in Sonoko’s latest cookbook Wafu Cooking.
As children, we would wake to the irresistible aroma of our mother's apple slab pies in the middle of the night. After our mother passed away, we recreated her recipe with a Japanese twist, adding my homemade miso to the filling—a "hidden ingredient" that won second place in the KCRW pie contest.
Join us for a fun, hands-on workshop where you'll learn to make a flaky, tender crust, prepare a seasonal nectarine fruit filling enhanced with handcrafted miso, and master the techniques that bring these elements together. We will demonstrate how small adjustments in technique and flavor can elevate familiar recipes into something memorable.
You'll leave with not only a delicious pie but also a deeper understanding of how traditional Japanese ingredients can transform Western classics.
