Come spend an afternoon with Baraka learning about the importance of the midday meal in Iraqi culture, making and feasting on an incredible lunch! Learn how to make some of Baraka's favorite dishes from her childhood in Iraq! You'll learn how to make a beautifully presented dish consisting of layers of lightly fried fish, fragrant turmeric rice, and caramelized onions. You'll also learn how to make a savory red lentil soup perfect for rainy days and a rich sauce with cucumber, dill, and garlic that compliments virtually any dish, whether Iraqi or not. Of course, no meal would be complete without dessert, so Baraka will be teaching you her family's recipe for Halava, a sweet and nutty dessert. Lunch at your house will never be the same! Get ready to explore! Be ready to roll up your sleeves as Culture Kitchen classes are hands-on and bring an appetite as we will enjoy a full meal in class.
