Real experiences from real travelers
The private workshop with the local family was the highlight of my trip to India. Learning the secret to real Rajasthani spices was incredible!
Mamata is a wonderful teacher. We made 8 different dishes and each one was a masterpiece. Highly recommend the 3-hour class.
Even the short 1-hour chai and pakora class was worth every penny. I finally know how to make authentic Masala tea at home!
The combination of the Blue City walking tour and the cooking class gave us a deep understanding of Jodhpur's culture. Excellent guide.
It felt like cooking with a friend. The home setting was so welcoming and the food was the best we had in all of Rajasthan.
Simple, clear instructions and very delicious results. The hotel pickup made everything so easy and stress-free.
As an Indian traveler, I still learned so much about specific Jodhpuri techniques. The spice market tour was a great addition.
For the price, the amount of food and knowledge you get is unbeatable. Secure booking through the site was seamless.
Everything you need to know for your journey
Most classes focus on iconic Rajasthani staples such as Dal Baati Churma, Gatte ki Sabzi, Ker Sangri, Pyaaz Kachori, and various types of Indian breads like Roti and Paratha.
The vast majority of traditional cooking classes in Jodhpur are strictly vegetarian, reflecting the local culture. However, some private sessions may offer meat dishes upon special request.
Not at all! Classes are designed for all skill levels, from complete beginners to professional chefs looking to expand their spice knowledge.
Yes, instructors are very mindful of international palates. You can choose the spice level for the dishes you prepare, from very mild to authentic Rajasthani heat.
Duration varies by tour. Quick workshops for snacks or chai last about 1 hour, while full culinary experiences typically last between 3 and 5 hours.
We offer both! Many of our most popular tours are held in authentic family homes for a more personal experience, while others take place in professional kitchen workshops.
It depends on the specific tour you book. Some 'premium' or 'private' options include hotel pickup and drop-off, while others meet at a central landmark like the Clock Tower.
Yes, most hosts are very flexible. Since Indian cuisine uses many lentils and vegetables, vegan and gluten-free options are easily arranged if you notify the host in advance.
Morning classes are great because they often include a trip to the fresh vegetable market. Evening classes are perfect for learning to prepare a full traditional dinner.
