A Taste of Bali
In Bali, cooking class is more than just a lesson; it's a cultural understanding through food. Unravel the secrets of Bali's unique cuisine by learning how to prepare authentic dishes from selecting the raw materials at market to deliver them at the table. You'll gain insight into the local culinary traditions and the significance of each ingredient
Most classes begin with an early morning trip to a local market, with translators of course. You'll get to see exotic tropical fruits, vegetables, and spices that became the foundation of Balinese food. Local sellers oftentime have certain knowledge about the cookings as well
Back to the kitchen, the chef guide will explain about the raw foods bought from the market and explain further on what dish you are going to make. You'll learn to grind spices for 'basa gede' (the essential spice paste), prepare classic dishes like Satay Lilit or Nasi Goreng, and create fragrant 'sambal'. Further, you'll get to explore more of the "advanced" dishes along the way. The experience culminates in a delicious feast where you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
