Holland America Line and kitchen brand Sur La Table are teaming up to bring global flavors from ship to shore. The new collaboration will offer cooking classes at Sur La Table locations nationwide, inspired by Holland America’s visits to over 140 ports across Europe. Through hands-on learning with top chefs, the classes aim to help guests gather more and gather better and provide access to Sur La Table’s top-rated tools and equipment to learn how.

A highlight of the partnership will be classes focused on preparing fresh fish dishes, reflecting Holland America’s commitment to serving fresh seafood from port to plate in 48 hours. Participants will work with chefs to create a destination-inspired dish using global flavors and techniques, as well as a Dutch dessert to embrace Holland America’s Dutch heritage.

Recipes will include crowd-pleasers as well as adventurous dishes such as seared salmon with saffron hollandaise, endive and roquefort winter salad, herbes de Provence, and stroopwafel crème brûlée.

At Sur La Table’s 53 stores nationwide, guests will have access to top chefs and expert advice from the leading culinary retailer and largest recreational cooking school in the country. Through its culinary program, Sur La Table annually teaches over 425,000 students and offers 40,000 classes. All Sur La Table culinary classes are 100 percent hands-on, so guests know they are truly experiencing the culinary lesson and not just observing.
