Seville · SEVILLE COOKING CLASSES
Paella done properly, salmorejo that is not gazpacho, and the tortilla argument settled. The 9 classes below are compared on how much you cook rather than watch, and which ones start at the market.
Join an English-speaking chef at Taller Andaluz de Cocina in Triana Market for three hours of hands-on Spanish cooking. You’ll prepare gazpacho or salmorejo, tapas, chicken paella, and lemon sorbet with Cava, then eat together with sangria and two extra drinks.
“I had a great time! The food was delicious and the wine was flowing. Well worth it”
Meet your guide at Triana Market, tour its food stalls, then cook salmorejo, spinach with chickpeas, paella, and dessert with a local chef. The 16-person class includes sangria, two meal-time drinks, utensils, and recipes to take home.
“Great exposure to Spanish and Sevilla’s spices, history of dishes. Going to the market was exciting and educational, Hands on food preparation was so much fun. The food was amazing.”
Meet your English-speaking guide at Triana Market, learn about local ingredients, then cook salmorejo, spinach with chickpeas, Valencian paella, and dessert with a professional chef. Guides such as Ana, Dom, Leo, Maria, and Sabrina bring humor and practical instruction to the class.
“I absolutely loved this experience! The market tour was so interesting, and I learnt so much about Spanish products. The cooking class was perfectly balanced with just the right mix of demonstration and hands-on participation. Best of all, we got to enjoy the dishes we prepared—and they were delicious! There was so much food, plus sangria and a refreshing lemon mint dessert to finish. A fantastic activity all round.”
Meet your English-speaking chef at Mercado de Triana at 6 p.m. for a three-hour, chef-led cooking class. You will prepare Spanish dishes such as salmorejo, spinach with chickpeas, and chicken-and-vegetable paella, drink homemade sangria, and eat the meal you make.
“Wonderful experience fo learn about local cuisine as well as the proper way to prepare it. The food was delicious and very clear instructions”
Join chef Fernando of Paella Legacy for a small-group rooftop cooking class in central Seville. You will prepare chicken and vegetable paella, taste overnight-marinated sangria, enjoy cathedral views at sunset, ask local questions, and take home recipes plus a keepsake.
“The views were unbelievable and the paella was very good. This tour was a bit more expensive than other tours we booked in Spain but was a very unique experience. The rooftop views are so unique. Tour happened at sunset so you got to enjoy both the day time and night time views of the city scape and the cathedral. Really breathtaking. Paella was very good. Nice learning experience. Great way to have a unique view point and a great dinner.”
Watch Fabio or Lucia prepare traditional paella while you taste Andalusian wine, olives, cheese, Iberian chacina, and fresh sangria. You’ll learn cooking tips and paella traditions, then eat the finished dish, with some sessions ending on a rooftop terrace overlooking Seville.
“Amazing class with Lucia she was very through. She offered history of Paella traditions while aroma floated through out the room. Food was delicious, big portions and family friendly.”
Watch chefs such as Fabio, Antonio, or Miguel prepare paella while explaining its ingredients, origins, spices, and broth. You’ll enjoy olives, cheese, cured meat, wine, beer, soft drinks, and sangria, then eat on a rooftop overlooking Seville. This is a demonstration, not a hands-on class.
“Fun Class and learned alot about Paella. Antonio was great. Hospitality was great during the class, with great wines, beer and charcuterie. View from the top of the building was awesome and the Paella was delicious.”
Spend about four hours at La Terraza del Cristina in central Seville, tasting four sangrias before watching chef Antonio prepare paella. Enjoy Iberian sausage, cheese, olives, unlimited drinks, and rooftop views. This is a demonstration, not a hands-on cooking class.
“Not exactly what we were hoping for. The paella cooking demonstration and explanation was good but the paella ended up pretty darn salty. It was advertised as all you can drink but limited on the host seeing your empty glass. When the food was served there was nothing to drink. Most at our table just picked at the food and were finally given a glass of Sangria just before leaving. All in all better off saving your money.”
Join chefs such as Fabio or Antonio for a 2.5-hour paella show in Seville. Watch the dish made from scratch, taste olives, cheese, and Iberian sausage, then eat paella with sangría on a rooftop overlooking the Guadalquivir and Torre del Oro.
“Unique experience learning the secrets behind preparing an authentic Spanish dish!! After we watched the fish being made we got to enjoy it on a rooftop terrace over looking Seville.”
