What to expect
Join us at our cozy guest house located among the rolling hills of Dilijan National Park, where you’ll learn how to make traditional Armenian “gata” bread, with a unique twist. Gata is a local sweet bread that’s usually filled with a simple flour, sugar, and butter filling.
During our baking class, you’ll have the opportunity to create your own unique filling, using the gata as a way to better understand your creative possibilities. First, you’ll prepare the dough of your gata along with the base filling together with your host.
Then comes the creative part: choosing from a wide selection of ingredients, from lemon leaves, to black pepper, to vanilla, and everything in between, you’ll create your own unique filling that reflects your personality and taste. If you’re not sure about what flavors pair well together, your host will gladly help you make the right selection.
While your unique gata bakes, you’ll sit down with your host and get to know each other over a cup of host coffee or tea and local fruit. Then, when your gatas are ready, you’ll taste your creations. We can’t wait to see where your creativity takes you with your gatas!
