About this class
In our Indonesian cooking class in Cologne, you will get to know the aromatic diversity of Southeast Asia. Indonesian cuisine delights with intensive spices, fresh herbs and finely tuned spiciness. Instead of pepper, chilies in particular provide character and depth.
You will learn how typical spice pastes — so-called bumbu — are prepared in a mortar and why they form the basis of many dishes. Together, we cook well-known specialities such as nasi goreng or bami goreng and discover ingredients such as ketjap manis, lemongrass, galangal and tamarind. Look forward to authentic recipes, exciting product knowledge and a taste experience full of exoticism.
