Classic Paella Cooking Course — Barcelona

Step into the world of Spanish gastronomy with our Classic Paella Cooking Course — a culinary journey through Barcelona’s iconic Boqueria Market followed by a hands-on cooking session. Led by a professional chef, you’ll explore the finest shops in the market, learning how to select the best ingredients: fresh seafood, fragrant saffron, extra virgin olive oil, and Iberian acorn-fed ham.

Back in our kitchen, begin your class with a Cava tasting before preparing a traditional Seafood Paella — thin, rich in flavor, and cooked to perfection. You’ll also make Pan con Tomate (bread with tomato, ham, fuet, and cheese) and homemade sangria, using fresh fruits, juices, and wine. Finish the experience by sharing your creations with fellow food lovers.

Barcelona Signature Paella Experience
Fabulous cooking class! J Ev

Fabulous cooking class! We had so much fun and learned all about making paella. The Sangria flowed freely. The appetizers, as well as the main meal, were delicious. This was exactly what we were looking for, as we have taken cooking classes in other countries so had high expectations. We had our class on a Sunday when the market is closed. I thought we were missing out by not going to the market, but in the end, I was so happy it worked out this way. We got extra training on how to clean cuttlefish and squid. This was a terrific choice of activities. Chef Maria was fun, lovely and a great coach!

One word…..delicioso!!! Malena Mendez

I’ve cooked a paella or two in my lifetime but after taking this class my paella game is going to a whole new level. Chef Maria was incredibly knowledgeable and her passion for cooking shines through. Her careful selection of the freshest ingredients Helped to create one of the best paella I’ve ever eaten in my life! I would visit Barcelona again just to come back to the class. One word…..delicioso!!!
