Description

Step into the heart of Balinese culture with an authentic cooking class held within the beautiful, historical grounds of an 'Umah Bali Kuno'. This hands-on culinary adventure is perfect for families, couples, and groups seeking a genuine taste of the island's traditions. Experience the Authentic Bali: Your journey begins with a warm, traditional Balinese welcome in our ancient villa compound. Here, you'll be introduced to the foundational flavors of the island—the essential spices and herbs that form the legendary Base Genep (Balinese spice paste). The Hands-On Culinary Journey (Aktivitas Berurutan): Welcome & Spice Talk: Start with a refreshing drink and an introduction to the key ingredients and cooking philosophy of Balinese cuisine, often passed down through generations. Preparation (Mise en Place): Get hands-on with traditional tools, chopping and grinding fresh, organic ingredients. You'll learn the authentic method of preparing a variety of appetizers, main courses, and a classic dessert. Cooking: Under the guidance of our friendly and knowledgeable local chef, you'll master techniques for creating several classic dishes, such as Sate Lilit (minced seafood/chicken satay), Tum Ayam (steamed chicken in banana leaf), and a refreshing Sayur Urab (mixed vegetable salad with grated coconut). Feast & Family Time: Finally, gather around the communal table in the stunning villa setting to enjoy the magnificent Balinese banquet you have personally prepared. It's a truly rewarding and unforgettable family-style meal. What Makes This Class Special? Unlike typical tourist classes, this activity is held in a genuinely old Balinese home, offering deep cultural insight into the traditional compound structure and daily life. You'll not only cook but also gain a memorable connection to the Balinese spirit. Leave with a full belly, a deeper appreciation for the culture, and a digital recipe book to recreate the magic back home!
