Cooking Class & Dinner with an Indian Family

On the day of your activity, you'll be picked up from your hotel in Varanasi and taken to the home of a local family, where you'll be welcomed ready to begin an unforgettable experience of Indian traditions and cuisine.

Your cooking class will begin with an introduction to typical Indian food: including the best ingredients to use, tips on how to cook them, and traditional recipes from Varanasi and across India. You'll learn why Indian gastronomy is highly regarded.

You will then prepare dishes guided by your host family. Learn to cook pakoras, samosas, rice dishes and for dessert, gulab jamun served in kheer.

Finally, you'll sit down together to enjoy the results of your cooking lesson. While tasting the delicacies you've created, you'll learn about the customs practiced by locals in Varanasi before meals. This will be a cultural experience to remember!
