Tokushima Prefecture to Hold "Yusanbako" Bento-making Workshop Taught by Japanese Chef in France, Its First Event in France, Using Ingredients Directly Imported from Japan
- Tokushima Governor to Promote Its Appeal on Site; Event to Take Place on November 16, 2024 -
Tokushima Prefecture will hold a cooking workshop in Paris for the first time from noon on November 16, 2024, led by a Japanese chef living in France, using ingredients directly imported from the prefecture, a renowned food paradise in Japan. The class will feature ingredients such as "sudachi" (Japanese citrus), "Naruto Kintoki" sweet potatoes, "yuzu" (another Japanese citrus fruit), and "Naruto Wakame" seaweed.
In this special program, participants will pack the dishes they prepare into "Yusanbako," a traditional Tokushima bento box. After enjoying their meal, they will be able to take an empty Yusanbako home. The workshop aims to share the appeal and usage of Japanese ingredients with French people, not only through tasting but also by experiencing the cooking process. On the day of the event, the governor of Tokushima Prefecture, Mr. Masazumi Gotoda, will visit France to promote the region’s appeal.
