Fez Cooking Class

Tourists are encouraged to diversify their vacation routine by participating in a private 5-hour cooking class in the city of Fes. This experience offers a unique opportunity to become familiar with Moroccan traditions and culture. Travelers will discover Moroccan cuisine in a cooking class set in a traditional riad within the historic medina of Fes.

At 9:30 am, you will be picked up from your accommodation by a chauffeur in an air-conditioned vehicle to meet the chef. You’ll have the chance to discuss with a traditional chef the various Moroccan dishes, including pomegranate lamb tagine with prunes and eggs, Dajaj Mqalli with olives and preserved lemons, seven-vegetable couscous, pastilla, and Moroccan soups like herb-infused harira, basara, and makouda.

Cooking Class in Fes

Among the side dishes, you’ll find typical Moroccan salads (taktouka, zaalouk, cucumber salad with tomatoes and onions, rice and tuna salad, potato salad, green bean salad), kebab skewers, khobz with olives, and, of course, Moroccan mint tea. After selecting the dishes you wish to prepare, you’ll head to the local souk to buy fresh produce and authentic Moroccan spices, such as Ras El-hanout, anise, fenugreek, sesame seeds, cinnamon, saffron, ginger, and turmeric.

Back at the riad, you’ll join a relaxed cooking class. While learning Moroccan culinary secrets and tips with your chef, you’ll roll up your sleeves and dive into the cooking process. At the table, listen to wonderful stories and discuss the cooking techniques you’ve discovered. After savoring your meal, consider this experience a delightful culinary accomplishment.

The 5-hour cooking class in a family setting in Fes concludes as you are returned to your hotel or riad.
