Hvar Island

Your Hvar cooking class starts with a garden tour, you will have the unique opportunity to handpick your own tomatoes and aromatic herbs from the herb garden. You will be guided through the field, learning about different types of tomatoes and herbs, native to the island. Then proceed for your outdoor cooking class. It is a 1-hour hands-on cooking class where you will learn to make Hvar salsa. The Hvar salsa will be made from scratch and will be used as a part of two additional dishes on the menu - octopus stew and bruschetta. Kornelija will guide you step-by-step to make the salsa using ripe tomatoes, herbs, garlic, onions, and local olive oil. You will chop and mix the ingredients to create a flavorful salsa, balancing the freshness of the tomatoes with the aromatic herbs. Then use the Hvar salsa to create bruschetta and incorporate it into a traditional Hvar octopus stew.
