Pastel de Nata Cooking Class in Lisbon

At Compadre, cooking is about sharing food, stories and Portuguese culture around the table. Our relaxed, welcoming approach makes the class suitable for beginners while remaining engaging for experienced home cooks. Rather than focusing on just one pastry, the experience introduces guests to two traditional recipes and the people, customs and flavours behind them. You’ll leave with practical skills, memorable moments and recipes you can recreate at home. - Learn to make puff pastry; - Learn the secrets to Pastel de nata; - Get to learn a second traditional recipe

Discover how authentic Portuguese pastéis de nata are made during a hands-on cooking class in Lisbon. With guidance from your host, you’ll learn every stage of the recipe—from preparing and laminating the puff pastry to making the custard, shaping the tarts and achieving their signature caramelised finish. As traditional puff pastry requires several resting periods, you’ll shape your pastéis using dough prepared in advance while learning how to complete the entire process at home. You’ll also prepare a second traditional Portuguese recipe, which may be sweet or savoury and varies between sessions. At the end, sit down together and enjoy both creations with tea. You’ll leave with the recipes and the skills to recreate a taste of Portugal at home.
