Private Bulgarian Cooking Class in Sofia with a Local with Hotel Transfers

3h30
About this activity
This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Your host will pick you up from your Sofia hotel and drive you home for your cooking class. Join your hosts Kremena and Dimitar in their kitchen to cook some of their favorite Bulgarian dishes during your hands-on 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.

Sample Menu

• Tarator - A cold soup served as a refreshment in summer, made from yoghurt, nuts, garlic, olive oil and cucumbers.
• Shopska salad - A salad of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, white cheese, olive oil and onions.
