Overview

Learn about traditional Polish cuisine on this 4-hour cooking class in a studio near Warsaw Old Town. Enjoy local meats, cheeses, breads, and dessert, discover the history of Polish cuisine, and cook and eat a hot starter plus two types of pierogi dumplings under the guidance of a professional Polish chef. An optional Polish vodka tasting is available for an additional PLN 49.

Begin with a tempting buffet of traditional Polish meats, cheeses, and breads – all of them locally made and organic – as your teacher explains the basic history of Polish cuisine. Next, settle into your work station and learn to prepare traditional Polish dishes: you'll make two different types of pierogi as well as another classic dish such as buckwheat pancakes with salmon or white sausage. After this, feast on the dishes you've cooked, washed down with complimentary soft drinks, followed by a dessert your chef has prepared in advance. Should you wish, an optional vodka tasting is available for 49 PLN. Over the course of this class, the chef will tell you the history of Polish vodka, explain how it is produced, and provide you with 7-8 shots of traditional Polish vodkas, including potato vodka, rye vodka, Zubrowka bison grass vodka, Krupnik herb vodka, and vodkas flavored with quince, cherry, hazelnut, and caramel. The course takes around 4 hours. You'll leave with a book of recipes, a certificate of participation, a small gift, and a welter of culinary facts and trivia.

Great team, really communicative and fun. We had great time - it was interesting, tasty and well organized. Definitely recommend both for those who know Polish cuisine well and "newcomers"

Polish Your Cooking classes on Polish cuisine were amazing! A great way to spend an evening in Warsaw. Even though, I am familiar with the Polish cuisine, as I am in fact Polish :) , I've never actually made any of the classics like pierogi, żurek or golabki on my own - I only remember seeing my mom and gradmas cooking those when I was a kid. So it was really nice for my husband and I to cook those dishes, especially with funny and charming chefs and other participants (btw, it's a great way to meet fellow travelers in Warsaw). The food was great and the atmospere so amazing and welcoming. Oh, and there was some traditional Polish alcohol involved ;) So really, it felt like a nice party at your friend's house :)

We had a blast cooking with Magna! She spoke perfect English and was funny and a great cook! She accommodated our gluten allergy with ease and was a very talented chef. She explained the recipes and watched as we followed her instruction. She was a great teacher and I learned a lot! She also had funny stories and told us about Warsaw today and the current views. The class flew by! She made us a few drinks and explained their Polish origin as well. Amazing and well worth it!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Polish cooking class! The facilities were very nice and very clean. Magda was amazing !!!!! She was very personable, had a great sense of humor, and speaks English very, very well. She made the experience such a pleasure. My warning to future customers would be to skip breakfast before you go because the school provides an amazing and abundant spread of breads, meats, cheeses, etc. and you eat the dishes you make as each course is completed - lots of food! We would highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Warsaw! It can be a bit tricky to find - but look for the cooking school signs on the outside of the building. A great experience not to be missed!
