Starters Examples

Have you ever heard about Escalivada? It literally means “cooked in hot ashes” !

Discover how to elaborate the Catalan Romesco Sauce, traditionally used to eat the grilled calçots, a type of scallion or green onion. Main ingredients are: grilled tomatoes and garlic head, almonds, hazelnuts and ñora pepper meat.

Main Dishes Examples

Can you imagine a meatball stuffed with the cuttlefish tentacles and stewed in a fish broth?

Do you know the Catalan Surf and Turf Dishes? Can you imagine a meatball stuffed with the cuttlefish tentacles and stewed in a fish broth? Chicken stew with crayfish and mussels could also easily happen in the Grandma’s Cooking Barcelona cookery lessons.

Further away from the worldwide well-known seafood paella, our grandmas may elaborate a black rice, colored with the ink of the cuttlefish and including seasonal artichokes. Or you may be part of the elaboration of a soupy rice with lobster.

Desert Examples

Torrijas is a dessert recipe coming from the south of Spain

Torrijas: The British call it bread pudding, while Americans would probably call it "French Toast." Torrijas is a dessert recipe coming from the south of Spain during the XV century as a way to use up stale bread. Elaborate torrijas with your own hands and don´t miss out the amazing flavor!

Cooking with Abuela, Veronica, and Ponhco was a once-in-a-lifetime treat! I felt almost at home when Abuela was guiding us through the labyrinth of booths in La Boqueria, conversing with each shop owner like she has long-standing relationships with everyone in the city. When cooking, she taught us new techniques and patiently instructed us through prepping one of the best meals I enjoyed in Barcelona! I will recommend this experience to my friends and family, and anyone looking for a meaningful, authentic Barcelona culinary experience!
