Step into the heart of Chefchaouen and experience Moroccan cuisine from the inside. This immersive cooking class connects you with local life, flavours, and stories passed down through generations.

Begin in the medina, where your host welcomes you and guides you through the narrow blue alleys to the local market. Learn how to select the freshest ingredients, including fragrant herbs, local olives, seasonal vegetables, and hand-ground spices, while meeting friendly vendors who supply the town’s kitchens.

Back at a traditional family house, roll up your sleeves and start cooking together. Prepare an authentic tagine, such as chicken with preserved lemon and olives or lamb with prunes, plus side dishes like zaalouk (smoky aubergine) and Moroccan salad. Taste khobz, the traditional Moroccan bread, and discover the ritual of mint tea preparation.

When the cooking is done, sit down with your hosts to share the meal you’ve created. Enjoy your lunch in the house’s courtyard or rooftop terrace, surrounded by the blue glow of the medina and the distant Rif mountains. As you eat, your hosts share family recipes, local customs, and stories of Arabo-Berber heritage.

This experience goes beyond a cooking class; it’s an intimate cultural exchange where food, storytelling, and hospitality come together in the heart of Morocco’s Blue City.
