Seville · SEVILLE COOKING CLASSES
A Seville trip never has quite enough free mornings. These 7 seville cooking classes are worth one, priced and timed so you can choose quickly and get back to the tapas.
Meet your English-speaking chef at stalls 75-77 in Triana Market for a three-hour group cooking class. Make a chilled soup, tapas, chicken and vegetable paella, and lemon sorbet with Cava, then share the meal with sangria and two more drinks. The chef varies, with past sessions led by Carlos, Carlo, Leo, Pedro, David and Dom.
“I had a great time! The food was delicious and the wine was flowing. Well worth it”
Start at Triana Market with a guide who introduces local ingredients and food traditions, then cook a Spanish lunch with a chef. The sample menu includes salmorejo, spinach with chickpeas, chicken-and-vegetable paella, and lemon sorbet with cava. The class is in English, welcomes dietary requests made in advance, and includes recipes to take home.
“We really enjoyed the Triana Market Tour and Andalusian cooking class. We have taken other cooking classes in Spain but very much enjoyed this one. My family enjoyed the salmorejo and spinach and chickpea dish, but the paella was a standout. 2 of us had the chicken paella, and 2 of us had the vegetarian paella. Luis and Pedro did a great job teaching about the history and traditions of Andalusian cuisine. We learned a lot, including how to break down a whole chicken and pare an artichoke. Great experience!”
Meet at Triana Market for a guided look at local ingredients, then cook three Spanish dishes and a light dessert with an English-speaking chef. The menu usually includes salmorejo, spinach with chickpeas, and chicken-and-vegetable paella. Sangria is served while you cook, with two drinks alongside the meal.
“The whole morning was a lot of fun and the meal we cooked was delicious”
At Taller Andaluz de Cocina in Seville’s Mercado de Triana, a chef leads a roughly three-hour English-language class in Spanish cooking. You help prepare dishes such as salmorejo, spinach with chickpeas and chicken paella, then eat the meal with two drinks. Recipes are provided, and dietary changes can be arranged in advance.
“A fun evening learning some new recipes and meeting new people! Pedro was awesome getting the class involved, the food was delish and we enjoyed the hands on experience!”
Meet host Fernando near Seville’s Roman columns, then head to a third-floor rooftop for a small-group paella class with Cathedral views. You’ll help make chicken and vegetable paella, enjoy sangría and reception bites, and have 30 minutes to ask about the city. Recipes and a small souvenir are included; the rooftop has no elevator.
“The paella cooking experience was the highlight of our trip to Seville. Fernando was terrific and made the experience fun. The rooftop views were amazing and the food was outstanding. Highly recommend.”
Meet an English-speaking instructor at a Spanish restaurant in central Seville for local wine, olives, cheese and Iberian chacina. Watch a paella being prepared, hear about its ingredients and traditions, and enjoy sangria before sitting down to eat. Fabio and Lucia have led sessions. This is a show-cooking experience, not a hands-on class.
“Amazing class with Lucia she was very through. She offered history of Paella traditions while aroma floated through out the room. Food was delicious, big portions and family friendly.”
At La Terraza del Cristina, a chef demonstrates Andalusian-style paella and explains its ingredients, origins, and evolution. You’ll start with olives, cheese, and Iberian salchichón, then enjoy paella and sangria with rooftop views of Seville. It’s a demonstration, not a hands-on cooking class. Chefs have included Fabio, Antonio, and Miguel.
“Chef Anthony was great! He answered everyone questions. He was engaging. Both of my kids loved the experience (16 and 18). Highly recommend.”
