A Taste of Spain

Spanish cuisine has many influences that have fresh and bold flavours to its cooking. In this class we will explore some of Spain’s most popular ingredients like saffron, garlic, olive oil, sherry vinegar. Using these we will make two of its most famous dishes

Gazpacho – This is an understated tasty and fresh classic that is simple to make using fresh ingredients and good quality Spanish olive oil. It originated in the Andalusian region of Spain.

Paella – Probably the best know dish from Spain with Moorish influences from the use of rice and saffron. It can be made with seafood, meat or just with vegetables. We’ll be cooking with Chorizo to give it a punchy Spanish taste. You can choose from a selection of ingredients to make your paella (vegan options available).

There will be a demonstration of a few easy side dishes and dips to taste. The dishes made in the class can be taken away and enjoyed at home

This is a hands-on cooking class. All dishes made can be taken away and enjoyed at home.

This workshop will be led by our Community Chef Iain McLellan, a skilled and talented Head Chef with over 20 years cooking experience. Iain is passionate about world cuisines and sharing his love of flavour combinations.

Some cooking skills are required to enjoy this workshop i.e. basic knife skills. Please bring some containers to take home your food. If you have any dietary requirements or allergies, please let us know when you are booking.
