What’s it all about?
The Persian Empire and its diverse culture have inspired many stories, sagas, poems and love songs. A big part of Persian culture is the food, the variety of yummy, hearty and elaborate mains, deserts and goodies that you drool over uncontrollably.
What will we cover?
In this class we are inviting you to a Persian feast. You will get to taste a range of yummy treats and foods, become familiar with Persian culture and have a chance to make some Persian yumminess yourself.
We want you to have some skills to be the next Persian host/hostess to your guests, so you will learn a bit about the culture of Persian hosting and the essential dos and don’ts.
