Cooking Class Information

Join our 4-hour cooking class in Marrakech for a unique experience that will enrich your culinary skills while introducing you to Moroccan gastronomic traditions. We'll begin with a visit to the market to gather fresh ingredients, followed by mint tea while we get to know each other. Next, you'll learn how to prepare and season traditional tagines using authentic techniques and spices. Throughout the workshop, we'll explore Moroccan culture and history. Finally, you'll taste the dishes you've cooked together.
We will meet you beside Koutoubia Mosque as per as agreed time and we'll take a quick trip to a local market to buy vegetables and other essential cooking ingredients. You'll choose the vegetables, and then we'll head to our house, which is just a short walk from the market.

After enjoying tea, you'll begin cooking under the guidance of Chef Sarah. She'll be your instructor, but you'll handle everything from peeling and cutting to seasoning your tagines and other dishes. This part of the class requires the most time and effort. You'll typically start with dishes that require longer cooking, then move on to those that take less time. Naturally, everyone will participate in the entire cooking class.

About Host

Baisara abdul

Hello. My name is Baisara Abdul Manamba from the Philippines, living in Marrakech. I have been interested in cooking since I was 10 years old, and I still cook almost every day. Therefore, if Japanese cuisine, I think that I can make most menus. I like to touch different cultures, so I'd like to talk with people from various countries. If we can meet, I’d like to enjoy LanguageExchange too. My home is in Asakusa, which is famous as a sightseeing spot. I also introduce interesting spots and delicious restaurants.
