Homemade Turkish Cooking Class for Couples
Thinking of a romantic date idea? How about becoming chefs for the day, right in the comfort of your own home? You and your partner can attend a free online Turkish cooking class and learn to create local Ankara delicacies together.
- Getting in the kitchen together not only provides a chance to spend quality time, but also a fun way to challenge each other’s culinary skills. It’s a perfect setting to share stories, laugh, and of course, taste your creations. Preparing Turkish meals will also let you learn more about Ankara's rich culinary traditions.
- Begin by choosing the recipe you wish to create - it could be a popular Turkish dish like 'Karnıyarık' (Stuffed Eggplant) or 'Çiğ Köfte' (Raw Meatball). The tutor will guide you through the process, share interesting facts and tips about Turkish cuisine. It's a great way to travel culinary through Ankara without leaving your kitchen.
- At the end, enjoy your meal together. To make the experience more Ankara-authentic, consider laying a 'Sofra' (Turkish dining table) and dressing in traditional Turkish clothing.
Preparation steps:
- Before the class, ensure that you have all the ingredients and equipment ready. The culinary school's website will surely provide you with the list of required items before the class. Set the ambience by preparing your kitchen for the class - ensure a spacious cooking area and a stable internet connection.
- Make sure your laptops or tablets are charged or plugged in, and that you can clearly see the instructor on the screen. Ideally, position the device in such a way that both of you can see the screen easily from the cooking area.
- Lastly, wear comfortable clothing but don’t forget to have fun with this - perhaps put on a chef hat or apron, it could also turn into a cute photo-op!

Some tips:
- Remember to take it slow and enjoy the process. It really isn’t about the end result, but the fun you have learning and cooking together. Take lots of photos and maybe even document your cooking adventure on social media.
- If you're both beginners at cooking, be patient with each other. Encourage and help each other out. Making mistakes is a part of the process, the key is to enjoy every moment of it.
- Make this cooking class a regular activity. Perhaps once a month? It is a great way to try new dishes and continue learning about Turkish cuisine. Who knows, you may discover a new passion or at least, have one more thing in common.
