The experience
We start at the neighbourhood market, the one where the family has always done its shopping: we choose the vegetables, herbs and meat, taste the olives and smell the spices before buying them.
Back at the riad, the low table is set up in the kitchen. We knead the bread, roll the semolina, build the tagine together, and learn to pour tea from up high without spilling a drop. Then we have lunch on the roof with what we have cooked.
