Paella cooking class - Local Market tour, Tapas & Wine

Valencian paella —and this hands-on cooking class teaches you the real recipe, not a bland substitute. Learn to make authentic paella with seasonal produce from Valencia's own fields, the way local chefs have perfected it for generations. 100% valencian. No shortcuts. Just authentic technique from Valencian chefs who grew up making it. Your experience starts at Ruzafa Market, a neighborhood gem where locals shop for fresh ingredients—far from the crowds of Central Market. Then, join our small-group workshop to master the secrets: selecting the best seasonal vegetables and meat or seafood - achieving the perfect socarrat (the prized crispy rice crust), using Albufera rice from Valencia's own fields, and balancing saffron like a pro. While your paella simmers, enjoy a sangria-making workshop and sample traditional tapas. Then sit down to feast on your creation with local wine, salad, mistela, and homemade dessert.
