Experience Moroccan Cuisine - Private Market Tour & Cooking Class with Transfers

Meet your host at her home in the Hay El Hana, an upscale neighborhood in Casablanca. After a refreshing drink and getting to know each other, head out to visit the local market. Your host will help you navigate the market, which can be overwhelming to explore on your own. She’ll show you where she buys her fresh produce, take you to the meat market (not for the faint of heart but a true, local experience!), and show you the spices that are on offer. Your host can also help you do a bit of shopping if you’re searching for a certain ingredient. 

Once your market experience is complete you will head back to the local’s home by car and start cooking. During your cooking lesson you will learn to prepare a Moroccan meal in a home kitchen.You'll be using fresh, seasonal ingredients and perhaps Casablanca’s local seafood. You might try lamb tagine with seasonal vegetables, marinated and grilled seafood, Moroccan lemon chicken with olives, couscous, tchackchouka (roasted bell pepper salad), camel burger or zaalouk (eggplant salad) with homemade bread. Your meal will conclude with a dessert such as milk pastilla, oranges with cinnamon or Moroccan cakes.
