Vegetarian Cooking Class
A private vegetarian cooking class rooted in traditional Portuguese flavors
Discover the hidden side of Portuguese cuisine with our vegetarian cooking class. Beyond the long list of meat and seafood dishes, there hides a delicate vegetarian side to Portuguese food that is often unseen, but has been evolving for centuries. From plentiful and warm vegetable based-soups such as the caldo verde or even cold soups like arjamolho and gaspacho, delicate broths (e.g. caldo de nabos), delicious egg and bread-based dishes such as açorda or migas, to fresh salads, or even dishes made with wild foraged ingredients of the likes of asparagus, purslane and mushrooms, perfumed with cilantro, pennyroyal, marjoram, and other herbs, there is plenty to learn and savor.
This vegetarian cooking class is ideal for those who struggle finding vegetarian options within the traditional Portuguese cuisine repertoire, but refuse to give up.
That being said, in this private vegetarian cooking class, you will be preparing a three-course meal, one-on-one with a talented chef. Our chef will guide you through the techniques and flavors that have been crafted in our culture for centuries, adding just a touch of modernity.
