Learn to make dishes from four of the most popular cuisines
in Europe and North Africa. In one week you will make an elaborate Italian
dinner, a light Spanish lunch, an exotic Moroccan dinner, a traditional
French Provencale supper, and on top of that learn to make various breads
and pastries - all in one week! You will learn to make risotto, pasta's,
Foccacia, Tapenade, Ratatouille, Gaspacho, Tortilla, Tagine of chicken,
spicy couscous and much much more. In essence the focus is on using fresh ingredients in season which are
prepared to ensure that taste is paramount. You can guess which country
is being focused on by the smells coming out of the cantina each day! |
We pride ourselves in having organic vegetable gardens and use vegetables in season from our own plots. We also purchase produce from authentic local producers and farmers. To reduce our Carbon footprint our villas and pools are solar heated and we only use wood derived from maintaining our forests. All our water comes from our own water wells. All our chefs believe that the only way
to learn to cook is to do it yourself. While they will demonstrate the
techniques, be prepared to roll up your sleeves and put what you have
seen into practice. The lessons are informal and the chefs are flexible
and willing to add those special dishes you always wanted to learn to
make. For more information regarding the chefs and their menus click on their photographs below: |
