Top Northeast Aegean Islands Cooking Classes

These cooking lessons reveal the secrets of longevity, which are hidden in the island’s unique gastronomy. Participants will learn how to prepare and cook three or four recipes from the mainly plant-based Ikarian cuisine. They may actively involve themselves in the cooking process or keep notes, while at the end of the lesson, the food is served for everyone to enjoy together with wine from the family’s winery. Local gastronomy is inextricably linked to longevity according to the results of studies run by American and European research groups. These scientists have cooperated with the Karimalis family in the selection of information and data on the Ikarian way of life and the local gastronomy based on traditional recipes.
