One of the most authentic experiences you can have in Nepal is to take a cooking class with a local family. The host family will pick up you from your hotel and accompany you to a local market to buy groceries and spices. You will learn about the ingredients and the different spices that make the food taste so unique. As well as the cooking class, you will also have a wonderful experience in their home, witnessing daily life and interacting with a local family. Dal bhat is a traditional meal, and the recipe is easy to follow: cut the vegetables, and mix them with an assortment of spices (turmeric, cumin, ginger, garlic) so that it’s full of flavour. You’ll learn new skills to remember and practice once you return home.
