Moroccan Cooking Class at the Moroccan Culinary Arts Museum

An authentic Moroccan cooking class in the heart of the medina

Immerse yourself in the rich culinary heritage of Morocco within the Moroccan Culinary Arts Museum, housed in an 18th-century palace spanning 5000 m², adorned with zellige, sculpted plaster, and cedar wood painted in the Zouak style.

An exceptional setting to discover the secrets of traditional Moroccan cuisine.

Practical learning with a Dada, keeper of Moroccan culinary expertise

Secrets of Moroccan cooking passed down by an expert

Guided by an experienced Dada, traditional keeper of Moroccan culinary expertise, participants learn the secrets of spice blending and slow cooking, techniques passed down through generations.

An authentic menu to prepare with your own hands

Prepare a true traditional 3-course Moroccan menu: two Moroccan salads as appetizers (eggplant zaalouk and tomato and pepper salad), a tagine of chicken with preserved lemon and olives as main course, and almond milk pastilla for dessert.

All made with fresh and authentic ingredients, at state-of-the-art individual cooking stations. The menu can be adapted according to your dietary restrictions.

A traditional Moroccan bread-making workshop

In addition to the main menu, participate in a traditional Moroccan bread-making workshop, to take home an additional skill rooted in the country's culinary culture.

An immersive experience, from market to table

Tasting and sharing on the museum's rooftop

Once your dishes are prepared, share them together during a convivial tasting in one of the museum's dining rooms, or on its magnificent rooftop with views over the medina.

A certificate and recipes to extend the experience

At the end of the class, each participant receives a Moroccan cooking certificate, as well as detailed recipes to recreate these authentic flavors once you return home.

An exceptional historic setting

An 18th-century palace renovated with authenticity

The museum occupies a former palace of a Marrakech notable, featuring two interior courtyards paved with zellige, a Carrara marble fountain surrounded by olive trees, and salons with ceilings over sixteen feet high — carefully renovated to preserve all its original character.

I had the chance to participate myself in this Moroccan cooking class in Marrakech, and it was a really successful experience. The Dada who leads the class is wonderful — pedagogical, warm, and passionate.

I finally learned how to properly blend Moroccan spices!

I prepared eggplant zaalouk as an appetizer and a Moroccan salad, a tagine of chicken with beldi lemon as main course, and a milk pastilla for dessert: a meal worthy of a real chef, and truly delicious!

I would do this class again with great pleasure, and my clients who have tried it are equally satisfied.
