Masterclass
Dive into the heart of Istanbul and its millennia-old gastronomy with Nadia Sammut, chef and passionate advocate of Mediterranean cuisine, alongside Chef Musa Dağdeviren, master of Turkish folk cooking, joined by food historian Özge Samancı. During this masterclass, explore the richness of Ottoman flavors — from bustling markets to palace kitchens — and discover techniques where sweet and sour engage in dialogue, and vegetables and fruits are elevated to treasures. Bridging rural traditions, street food, and culinary memory, uncover the refinement of Istanbul and the dignity of forgotten recipes.
