Taste the holiday tradition of Beigli two ways! Make both Walnut and Poppyseed Beigli in a cooking class led by a chef live from Hungary
One of Hungary's most significant contributions to the culinary world is their amazing desserts. And this loved sweet treat is no exception. Found throughout Hungary, and especially at Christmas, Beigli will become a new tradition in your family home. During the holidays, bakeries throughout the country fill their windows with these sweet rolls, typically filled with walnut or poppyseeds. But the real art to Beigli is achieving a perfect shiny, crackly and marbled mahogany colored crust.
In your private baking class, you'll make two types of Beigli, one filled with walnuts the other with poppyseeds. While baking you'll whip up some quick cottage cheese donuts! Your kitchen will smell wonderful and perhaps you'll even see some good fortune after your class. After all, there's a beautiful old belief in Hungary that poppyseeds bring good luck.
Chef Agnes will video call into your home from her kitchen in Budapest for a private cooking class. Together, you'll share stories while you bake this holiday favorite together. It's a day you'll never forget.

Meet The Chef
Chef Agnes
Budapest, Hungary
Owner of top rated culinary experience in Hungary, Private chef for celebrities
Chef Aggie was born and raised in the Hungarian countryside until the age of 21 when she moved to Budapest to study. She graduated with a Bachelor degree in catering, restaurant and tourism. After graduating, she became a class instructor at a culinary school in Budapest where she discovered sharing her passion for food and stories with travellers. She decided to follow her dreams and open her own culinary experience - Culinary Hungary Home Cooking in the heart of gorgeous Budapest in 2011.
Agnes offers something different than a traditional cooking school. All events take place in her own home kitchen not a “fancy” commercial-style kitchen. She wants you to feel like you at home and that the dishes can be easily recreated. She's now welcomed hundreds of travellers into her home.
Aggie believes in authentic cooking and comfort food. The majority of her recipes were learned from cooking with her parents, who taught her secrets of Hungarian Cuisine and Gastronomy. Many of recipes she teaches are family secrets and make part of my family’s heritage.
Chef Agnes loves to share the dishes and traditions of Hungary with others from around the world. She can't wait to bring Hungary into your home in her traditional Hungarian cooking classes with The Chef & The Dish.
