Market Tour and Greek Cooking Class in Epanomi-Thessaloniki

Erna and Thanos will welcome you into their beautiful home, which is filled with arts and trinkets from their travels across Europe and beyond! Erna makes everything from scratch, including her delicious freshly-baked bread. Thanos is always in charge of the fish, which is cooked to perfection! They combine flavors from their Greek and Austrian cultures with delicious results. First, Erna will walk you to a local market on Wednesdays which is a 10 minute walk from their lovely home. On days other than Wednesday, Erna will take you to another small, local market where there are fish and vegetable stands. There you will shop together for fresh fish for your meal. Then your cooking class will take place in a local home kitchen where Erna will teach you how to make Greek food with an Austrian Twist.

Join Erna and her husband, Thanos , who live in a seaside village outside of Thessaloniki for a authentic and local experience. On Wednesdays, Erna will walk you to her local weekly morning market where you can get local fruits and vegetables. On days other than Wednesday, Erna will take you to another small, local market where there are fish and vegetable stands. Together with Erna, you will prepare all the side dishes for your meal, such as feta or anchovies in wine leaves, fried aubergines stuffed with herbs and fresh cheese, tzatziki with purslane (traditional strained yogurt with garlic, purslane, olive oil and lemon). All these will be made with fresh and seasonal ingredients. You can expect the cooking lesson to last about 1-2 hours and at the end you will be newly-able to recreate a few authentic Greek dishes once back home!

For groups larger than 4, for the cooking part of the experience, Erna will divide the group into two. As her kitchen is small, the set up will be: the first group will work on the preparation of the ingredients and the second group will do the rest of the cooking. When all the dishes are done, the whole group can dine together at the table.
