Türkisch / osmanische Küche - Nachmittagskurs

Beschreibung

In our half day cooking classes, you will be taught from scratch how to make different recipes from Turkish and Ottoman Cuisine. Usually we cook a balanced 5 dish meal, including a soup, 2 vegetarian starters, one meat based main course and a dessert.

We adapt our menus for vegan/vegetarians and those who has allergies or food restrictions.

Classes are very hands on and we are very centrally located in the heart of Sultanahmet close to Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia.

Menü

We generally pick the menu a few days prior to the class, depending on the size of the group and special requests. Our meze menu we only do in AM classes because it doesn't have a main dish. If you have certain preferences, let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate.
