Learn how to prepare and cook typical dishes from Taiwan in this Taiwanese cooking class in English (or Spanish) in Taipei. Take a walk in a traditional market, choose the freshest ingredients, and join us in the kitchen to boost your cooking creativity and to discover the most authentic flavors of Taiwan.
We will start the morning visiting a traditional market, where we will select the freshest ingredients. We will use these later to prepare the most tasty Taiwanese dishes. Feel the sounds of the morning market bustle, talk to the local merchants and choose the best ingredients for your dishes.
Visit to the market will depend on the chosen menu and class participants for the chosen date and time.
Before jumping to the kitchen, we will relax and sit to enjoy a delicious Taiwanese tea, to leave behind the bustle of the market. Once refreshed, we will prepare a menu of 3 or 4 delicious dishes (including a dessert). Our patient teacher will lead us through the class, and she will explain all the tips and secrets of the authentic Taiwanese cuisine, and the most commonly used ingredients.
