The secrets of Albanian Cuisine: cooking class in Tirana-Small Group

During the cooking class, you will learn how to prepare authentic Albanian dishes from scratch, including recipes handed down through generations. The experience takes place in a warm and friendly atmosphere, accompanied by good company, local wines, and traditional drinks. One of the highlights of the class is mastering "Tave Kosi," Albania’s most iconic dish, famously known as the "independence dish" because it was the favorite of Ismail Qemali, the country’s first prime minister. You will also get hands-on experience making homemade byrek, a beloved Albanian savory pastry.

The class doesn’t stop at savory dishes — traditional Albanian desserts are also part of the culinary journey. Emphasizing authenticity and quality, the ingredients used are as organic and natural as possible, ranging from fresh herbs and vegetables grown in the garden to homemade wine and raki. This approach ensures that guests get to taste the true flavors of Albania, making the cooking class a rich cultural and gastronomic experience.
