What to expect
You'll work in Dapur Usada's kitchen learning to combine fresh, locally sourced ingredients into three different Jamu tonics. Staff will walk you through their family recipes, explaining how each blend draws from both Indian Ayurvedic wisdom and traditional Balinese Usada herbal knowledge. Expect hands-on mixing and measuring rather than passive observation. The session connects directly to the kitchen's broader IndoVedic philosophy—blending ancient medicinal systems with modern, locally-grounded cooking.
