Hanoi Cooking Class at Hue's Family

We are having two classes: at 9.00- 13.00 ++, and other one at 15.00 - 19.00 ++

At 8.45, our tour guide will pick up at your hotel and take a walk to outdoor market (wet market) with the chef. You will be fascinated with every step by the color, noise and the smells of the foods.

Stroll around to visit distinct food sections with their variety of herbs, vegetables, meat and sea food which brings you very close to the simple life. It is very interesting to see and to learn how a local woman chooses and buys the best quality of the fresh food from numerous food stalls in the market.

With a rattan hand basket, your job is to buy some herbs and spices for the cooking class (Herbs and spices are a very important part of authentic Vietnamese food)

 Raw food bought from the market will be washed and prepared quickly in the kitchen. Cooking methods and utensils will be placed properly on each table.

 Cooking Demonstration

 

 You will prepare and cook by yourself under the instruction of the chef from the beginning to the end, learning how to marinate and to spice will be the most crucial lesson. You will also enjoy decorating dishes with carrot flowers, lemon grass stems, banana leaves and curved chili.

The authentic magical sauce mixed from fish sauce, water, sugar, lime, chili, garlic and herbs is very easy to make.
