Persian Cooking Class

About this class

Saffron Studio in Oakland offers hands-on Persian cooking classes where participants learn to make the aromatic, herb-forward dishes that define one of the world's oldest and most sophisticated culinary traditions. Each class focuses on a seasonal menu of two or three dishes - typically a rice, a stew, and an herb-based salad or appetizer - with instructors explaining the spice and herb combinations that give Persian cooking its distinctive flavor profile. Students eat everything they cook together at the end of class.
