Cuisine of Agra is influenced by a number of neighbouring places and the variety of food reflects that. There are diverse dishes which are a part of local culinary culture which originated elsewhere and then were assimilated and given a local unique Agra flavour. A cooking class in Agra is a good way to learn about such nuances of a few Indian cuisines and how they assimilate locally. Most of cooking classes, unless specified otherwise are held in home kitchens of local families and hosted exclusively by them. So the participants not only learn to cook some Indian food, but also learn a bit about the daily lives of the families they visit, making it a complete India experience.
