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 begin an experience of Indian traditions and cuisine.

Your cooking class will start with an introduction to typical Indian food: learning about popular ingredients, cooking tips, and traditional recipes from Varanasi and India. You will discover the significance of Indian gastronomy.

Next, you'll learn how to prepare various dishes under the guidance of your host family. You will explore how to cook pakoras, samosas, rice dishes and finish with gulab jamun served in kheer, a sugary syrup.

Finally, you'll sit down to taste the results of your cooking lesson. You will enjoy the delicacies you've created and learn about the customs practiced by locals in Varanasi before eating. A cultural experience that you'll remember!
