Experience Authentic Korean Cooking in Stratham: Sue’s Korean Kitchen Cooking Class | Cooking Class | Workshop

Stratham, New Hampshire, may not be the first place you associate with Korean culinary traditions, but Sue’s Korean Kitchen is changing that with an immersive home-style cooking experience that offers a genuine taste of Korea. Located at 74 Portsmouth Avenue, this intimate cooking class brings participants into a warm, welcoming kitchen where they can learn to prepare authentic Korean dishes from start to finish, guided by Sue herself. With a strong emphasis on traditional flavors and techniques, this class stands out as an exceptional way to connect with Korean culture beyond the typical restaurant visit.

The experience lasts about two hours and is designed for small groups of no more than 12 participants, creating a hands-on, personal atmosphere ideal for both individuals and couples. The cooking lesson centers around making classic banchan—Korean side dishes—that pair with comforting white rice and a homemade soup crafted from Sue’s own recipes. These dishes spotlight the unique flavors and techniques found in Korean home cooking, such as fermentation, layering spices, and balancing textures, offering a deeper understanding of the cuisine.

Beyond the food, the class is wheelchair accessible and provides all necessary materials including aprons (which participants may purchase if they wish). Hot tea and water are served to keep you refreshed as you chop, steam, and sauté your way through the lesson. Whether you choose the single seat option at $120 or pair up for $150 to cook alongside a friend or partner, the payoff is more than just a meal—you’ll take home newfound skills and the satisfaction of having prepared an authentic Korean feast.

Sue’s Korean Kitchen offers travelers a rare chance to shake off the usual tourist routine and get a real taste of Korean culture through food in a quaint New England town. The class’s location in Stratham makes it especially convenient for visitors based in nearby Portsmouth or traveling through southern New Hampshire.

For visitors eager to expand their culinary repertoire or simply hungry for a unique cultural experience, this cooking class provides a rare behind-the-scenes look at Korean home meals not often found outside Korea itself. With the option to enjoy your own cooking as part of the class, it’s a delicious and educational adventure that perfectly complements outdoor exploration in the region.
