Are you ready to roll up your sleeves and learn how to create your own fresh sushi rolls like a pro? You are in for a special treat! We will kick off the class with delicious plum wine spritzer to set the mood, then get rolling!
In this highly interactive and hands-on class, Chef Scott will let you in on tips and tricks of making delicious sushi rolls, from preparing the perfect sushi rice, cutting the fresh ingredients properly, and the art of rolling. On the menu is tuna roll with spicy mayo sauce, veggie roll with avocado and cucumber, and "Banh Mi" roll with fresh pickled vegetables and cilantro for a fun twist. You are invited to let your creativity flow and try rolling with seaweed both inside and out and mix and match different ingredients to develop your own unique edition.
No experience is required! We will send you the equipment and ingredients list, which are easy to find and you may already have them in your home kitchen. If you don't have all ingredients, do not despair! Some ingredients can be easily substituted and our Chef will teach you how to make the most of what you already have on hand. Just make sure you have these essential ingredients: short or medium grained rice (sushi rice works best), seaweed nori sheets, rice vinegar, canned tuna, avocado, cucumber, bell pepper, carrot, and any other vegetables of your choice. If you are able to source fresh, sushi-grade fish such as salmon or tuna, fantastic! The Chef will be able to guide you on how to cut the fish properly if you will be using fresh fish, but it is not required and the Chef will be using canned tuna for the demonstration. Soy sauce, sriracha, and mayonnaise will be the base for the sauces you will make. We will need plum wine to mix a delicious plum wine spritzer! You will have an opportunity to interact with the Chef and ask questions throughout the session.
Prepare your mis-en-place and cook your rice ahead of the session, grab your drinking glasses, and get ready to join a fun virtual cooking party! Ticket is on a per-person basis. Please note our class time is in the Eastern Time Zone!
Born under the sun-drenched skies of Florida, Chef Scott has always had a passion for flavor,family, and the art of bringing people together through food. Though Florida was home for the first few years of life, it was in New York—amid the bustle of multicultural neighborhoods and iconic delis—where Chef Scott was raised and first exposed to the diversity and vibrancy ofworld cuisine. Inspired by family traditions and the melting pot of the New York culinary scene, He soon set sights on the professional kitchen. That dream led westward to California, where he trained under acclaimed chefs and refined their technique in some of the state’s most innovative kitchens. In 2018 Chef Scott launched his own culinary brand— quickly earning a loyal following and critical acclaim. Now, after years of success in California, Chef Scott is coming full circle—returning to Florida to bring his culinary vision back to where it all began. Coastal Vibes Culinary is excited to reconnect with local roots while sharing a menu that tells a story—one plate at a time.
