This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Meet Kremena and Dimitar at their home and drive 20 min in their car to the Zhenski Pazar market. It is one of Sofia’s oldest markets where you can find produce, honey, wine as well as clothing and pottery. Walk through the market with Kremena and Dimitar and get immersed in Bulgarian market life, learning about regional produce that is sold by the vendors here. Purchase a few ingredients before returning to their home for your cooking class. Learn to make stuffed peppers with rice and meat or mish-mash (onions, peppers, tomatoes, cheese and eggs) and tarator (cold soup made of Bulgarian yogurt, cucumbers, nuts and garlic). You can expect to cook together for about 1 hour, before sitting down to enjoy the meal you helped prepare at their dining table.
Please note that if your group is larger than 3, you will learn to cook in shifts as Kremena's kitchen can only accommodate 4 people at a time.
