Cooking Class Marrakech: Market, Tagine and Family Recipes

In most Moroccan homes, recipes are never written down: they are passed on by watching, tasting and doing. Our cooking class Marrakech experience works the same way. We start at the market to choose vegetables and spices, then head to a riad kitchen to cook a full meal together.

You will prepare a tagine of your choice, a few cooked salads and bread, learn how the spices are balanced, and finish with mint tea poured the proper way. Then you sit down and eat everything you made, and leave with the recipes.

In the kitchen of a riad in the Marrakech medina, with a local cook, after a visit to the market to choose vegetables and spices. If you need a transfer to the riad, we can arrange it on request.
