Cooking in Tangier

A little while ago I wrote about my experience in Marrakech attending a cooking course at the Amal Women’s Training Centre – and having followed the progress of Tangier based Blue Door Cuisine online, I thought it was time to do the cooking experience thing a little closer to home, so I signed up for a Mint Tea and Bread Making Class!

The Blue Door Cuisine kitchen is centrally located in Rue Al Mabarra, which is not far from the Medina and Grande Socco – so pretty easy to find! It is a wonderful space and ended up being not just an informative morning, but really fun and sociable as well, meeting people from all over the world with the common interest of learning more about Tangier and Morocco.

We started off with the bread making process – anyone who has spent any time in Morocco will know how essential bread is to any meal!! And as we have a bread oven on our land in the countryside I thought it might be a good skill to acquire!

What was great about this course – and I think would be particularly interesting if you are new to Tangier or Morocco – was that it was not just about the process of ingredients and cooking them – we took our kneaded and shaped loaves up the road to the neighbourhood ovens and were able to experience a little of the the day to day life in Morocco!

There was time for a quick and informative twirl around the spice market while our bread was baking!

And then back to the kitchen in time to make mint tea, and sit down to a wonderful meal of typical Moroccan tastes to go with our bread  – amlou, olives,  olive oil, jebli cheese . . . all delicious!

Great food, good company – not too mention some beautiful lights –  and a wonderful way to spend a morning in Tangier!

My list of things to do when I can get back to Morocco is growing...old favourites to revisit along with new ones to discover. I certainly won't be taking that 4 hour flight for granted again!!
A long leisurely lunch at @berbari_maison is pretty high up on my list - a lovely countryside chambre d'hote just outside of Assilah where you can phone in advance to book lunch. #postponedontcancel #Assilah #teaintangier #asilah #morocco #tangier #tanger #northernmorocco

X marks the spot. . .
I was recently asked to look for some vintage Moroccan fabrics and this led me down a bit of an embroidery rabbit hole - so many beautiful vintage pieces with so much perfectly formed, handstitched detail.

And the joy of giving yourself fresh new white walls means a new space to put those familiar images and items and bring a little of your own history into a new space - with my favourite @dar_fatyme cushion in pride of place along with beads and prints from South Africa and woven throw from the north - the question is....how long will I be able to avoid the temptation of adding colour?? I already have some ideas bubbling under the surface!! #decoratinginblackandwhite

The end of 2020 involved a move up a mountain (literally and figuratively) so as we start the year with fingers crossed and looking forward to be able to get back to our place in the sun in Assilah we are also working  out a restructuring of our lives that will allow for flexibility and change in 2021 - here's hoping....so from my corner on a Welsh mountainside to yours, best wishes for 2021 x
