## Overview

Join our cooking class for a unique 4-hour culinary experience in Marrakech. Improve your cooking skills while discovering the traditions, flavors, and history of Moroccan cuisine.

Before cooking, we'll visit a local market to buy fresh vegetables and the ingredients needed for our recipes. Back at our family home, we'll prepare and enjoy traditional Moroccan mint tea while getting to know each other.

The cooking class is fully hands-on. You'll learn authentic techniques for preparing Moroccan tagines, from peeling and chopping to seasoning with traditional spices such as Ras El Hanout. As we cook, we'll share stories about Moroccan culture, traditions, and everyday life.

Working together as one team, you'll prepare several different dishes, allowing you to learn a wider variety of recipes and cooking techniques.
