Teran, a vegetarian cooking school, is located within Jokokuji Temple.
The temple has a 350-year history.
Customers practice Japanese raditional recipes that they can also make at home.
寺 means Jokokuji Temple (name changed from Teikyo An Temple).
庵 means a small house used for Teikyo An Temple about 350 years ago.
Shojin Ryori came to Japan from China as Buddhist monk's food.
Fish, eggs and meat are not used but dairy products, fruits, vegetables, seaweed, and soybeans are used.
Incorporating vegetarian cooking during regular meals makes vegetarian cooking more familiar to us. In addition, the experience of making and eating vegetarian cooking introduces you to the heart, spirit and traditions of Japan.
