— Just as a traditional Sherpa guide helps a mountain climber navigate the stresses and mysteries of a Himalayan peak, a food sherpa is a local expert who brings a hungry traveler to pockets of the culinary landscape that may otherwise seem out of reach.

PAELLA COOKING WORKSHOP ULTRAMARINOS & MARKET VISIT _ COOKING TOURS & CORPORATE SPAIN FOOD SHERPAS

PAELLA COOKING WORKSHOP AND ULTRAMARINOS & MARKET VISIT

The “Paella” is Spain’s most famous dish, a global icon of our cuisine. We invite you to join us and enjoy for 3,5 hours a complete culinary experience that is always accompanied by a ‘food-sherpa’ of our team- from shopping at the central market to preparing a delicious paella.

We will start at 11am with a visit to the vibrant Atarazanas market, where will show you the most surprising seasonal products of our region.

During our walk we will select some of the best fresh products that we need for the following cooking workshop. Our large and modern kitchen is a 5 minutes’ walk away from the market, in the SOHO Art District.

Upon arrival, we will have the opportunity to enjoy a tasting of different local, monovarietal extra virgen olive oils and entrees like roasted almonds, Aloreña olives and a “tostón de bacalao”, a very special and popular snack from our area (cateto bread with cod and orange).

Apart from the paella we also prepare a refreshing and traditional gazpacho.

Then we roll up our sleeves and you’ll learn with us how to cook authentic paella in a participatory way. Which rice to use? What is “sofrito” and how do you make it? What types of paella are there and which are the most popular ingredients? To top everything off, we selected an excellent wine of the region, made of local grape varieties.

Throughout the activity you will be guided by a member of our team, a so called food-sherpa, who is an expert in our culture and local gastronomy. Our Food Sherpas speak English, German and Spanish.

If you enjoy cooking, trying new things, learning and having a good time, this is your opportunity! Time: 11,00-15,00 Languages: ENG / ESP / DEU Meeting point: Crossroad Larios and Sancha de Lara st
