Full description
This is a 5-hour experience in Ubud. It is run by Paon Escape Balinese Cooking Class, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
Balinese cooking classes usually begin at a morning market to buy the ingredients, then move to a family compound or a purpose-built kitchen. The base of most dishes is base genep, a spice paste of shallots, garlic, galangal, turmeric, ginger, chillies, candlenut and shrimp paste pounded together, and from it come sate lilit (minced meat on lemongrass sticks), lawar (a chopped salad with coconut and blood in the traditional version), pepes (fish steamed in banana leaf) and the yellow rice, nasi kuning. Classes run three to four hours, you eat what you make at the end, and vegetarian versions are standard on request.
The price covers Balinese cooking class, Introduction to Balinese ingredients and cooking techniques, Preparation of traditional dishes, Homemade dinner and Evening rice field walk. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
Paon Escape Balinese Cooking Class sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Paon Escape Balinese Cooking Class before treating your booking as final.

Nous avons réservé cette expérience pour 2, ce fut mémorable. Situe en plein cœur de la campagne balinaise, nous avons visité et fait le tour du jardin de fruit et légume avec la possibilité de goûter les fruits si nous le souhaitions, fruit de la passion, orange, et même du cacao ! L'hôte nous a présentés les différents fruit et légume. Ensuite, nous avons entamée la cuisine accompagné par l'hôte et 2 commis pour nous aider à couper les légumes, les condiments, nous avions le temps de cuisiner c'était vraiment notre moment, nous avons pu poser toutes nos questions sur la recette les ingrédien
