The Culinary Tour: Eat Smart in Morocco
October 23-31, 2008
Join us in getting to the heart of Moroccan culture through an exploration of her tantalizing cuisine. We will discover the secrets of Moroccan dishes by watching renowned chefs as well as home cooks prepare classic creations such as stew-like tagines; hearty, well-spiced soups; salads of raw or cooked vegetables in flavorful olive oil dressings, savory and sweet pastry delights; and signature dishes such as bestila, which is made with almost translucent pastry sheets, and the classic Berber couscous. Also included will be talks on culinary topics and visits to bustling markets to learn about the herbs, spices and condiments used in Moroccan cookery. We will also see the major tourist sights, yet still have time to shop and relax along the way.
