WHAT YOU’LL DO

A hands-on Mediterranean session covering spiced quinoa kebabs, lemon-thyme chicken and Greek rice pudding.

Discover the fresh, sun-drenched flavors of Mediterranean home cooking in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Bal. Each dish in this session is built around bold spice, seasonal produce and the kind of approachable technique that translates directly to your own kitchen.

 

You'll start by forming and grilling Mediterranean-spiced quinoa and beet kebabs, learning to build texture and flavor into a plant-forward dish. Next, you'll marinate and cook lemon-thyme chicken, pairing it with roasted butternut squash, charred broccolini and a bright pineapple salsa. The class closes with rizogalo – stirring and infusing a classic Greek rice pudding with citrus and warm spices until silky and set. Book this Mediterranean cooking class today. 

Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Nathalie Nathalie

Chef Bal is not your regular chef by any means: he is personable, passionate, experienced and a joy to be around. Whether you are taking one of his cooking classes - where you'll learn skills you can take and repeat at home, - or if you're hosting a private event, I can guarantee it will be something for the books!
