Basque Cooking Class
Join a professional chef for a Basque cooking class, where you’ll make four dishes to feast on, accompanied by local drinks.
Experience the culinary delights of the Basque Country with an interactive cooking class in San Sebastián. Immerse yourself in the vibrant gastronomic scene of the region as you head to a family-owned restaurant in the historic Parte Vieja (Old Town) at De Valle Lersundi Plazatxoa. Here, you will be greeted by a professional chef who will guide you through the preparation of four traditional Basque dishes.
Learn the art of making a classic tortilla de patatas, indulge in the flavors of bacalao al pil pil (codfish in pil pil sauce), savor a mouthwatering steak with red piquillo peppers, and delight in the iconic burnt Basque cheesecake. Throughout the cooking process, your chef will share insights into the history and cultural significance of each dish.
Afterwards, sit down to enjoy the fruits of your labor as you indulge in a feast paired with carefully selected drinks such as Basque cider, red and white wine, and a refreshing iced apple cider. Bid farewell to your hosts with a recipe card in hand, allowing you to recreate your Basque cooking adventure in the comfort of your own home.
This 2.5-hour culinary experience is recommended for those aged 12 and above and is limited to small groups of 10 people or less. Delve into the rich gastronomic traditions of the Basque region and gain a deeper appreciation for its culinary heritage. Choose from multiple start times throughout the week, and make sure to book in advance to secure your spot.
Included in the experience are the ingredients and equipment needed to cook four dishes, the expertise of a local guide, the guidance of a professional chef, and recipes to take home for future culinary endeavors. Embark on this culinary journey and discover the flavors of the Basque Country in the heart of San Sebastián.
