What to Expect When Visiting Venda do Pinheiro, Lisboa, Portugal
Enjoy the only only cooking class in Portugal where you get to learn about pastry making inside a real award-winning Portuguese bakery! Learn the secrets of Pastel de Nata and taste them with your friends and family paired with local Port or tea!
This is the only cooking class in Portugal where you get to learn about pastry making
inside a real award-winning Portuguese bakery – just 30 mins from Lisbon!
The class starts with an introduction to the history of Pastel de Nata as well as the
family-run bakery where this workshop takes place. While we talk, you will also get to try
other traditional pastries João’s bakery is famous for.
After you’ve geared up, you’ll go inside the kitchen of João’s very own “pastelaria”. This
is where you will learn how to bake the irresistible Portuguese Custard Tarts (aka Pastel
de Nata / Egg Tarts) everybody loves!
Unlike other Pastel de Nata classes around Lisbon, we will show you how to make puff
pastry like the pros. Afterwards, we will make the custard from scratch and bake it all
inside a professional oven. During this class we all work together as a team. Everyone
will get to make at least 3 tarts by hand – spread the dough with a specific Pastel de
Nata technique, fill in the custard, etc. The end result will be a collaborative effort. A
delicious one, of course! 😉
In the end, we’ll eat the warm tarts with coffee, tea, Port wine or sour cherry liqueur!
