Ghanaian cooking has texture, depth, and a logic built over centuries. In this hands-on session, you’ll learn to prepare classic local dishes using the methods that have shaped them — the coalpot, the asanka grinding stone, plantain leaf wrapping — rather than shortcuts. Your guide doesn’t just teach you what to cook; they explain the cultural context behind each technique and ingredient. Eating what you made at the end is the reward. Ages 13 and up. Open to curious beginners; no kitchen experience needed.
