This experience introduces you to Egypt’s culinary traditions, with recipes that date back around 5,000 years. You will learn how modern Egyptian cuisine still revolves around staples such as legumes—especially beans and lentils—alongside a variety of vegetables and onions. Egyptian bread is described as part of most meals and features throughout the food culture you will explore.

As you move through the session, you will see the cooking process from A to Z, not only learning about the ingredients but also observing preparation techniques. Along the way you will gain insight into typical Egyptian eating habits. If you are a vegetarian, you will not lack vegetable-based options here, since meat is relatively expensive and many dishes centre on plant-based components. The experience focuses on understanding both the food itself and the cultural habits that shape how it is eaten in Egypt.
