Fiesta Chilena

Join guest chef Marshella Powers as she prepares a Chilean Feast!

1. Ensalada de Palmitos

Starting a meal with an “entrada” (which means entrance) is very typical and it always consists of different raw vegetables

2. Pebre Chileno

This is an important part of every Chilean meal and this item is placed on every table when you go into a restaurant and it is paired with empanadas all the time. This is eaten as you enjoy your “entrada” with some crusty bread.

3. Empanadas de Carne

Learn how to assemble each empanada.

4. Mote con huesillos

This would be “El postre” which means dessert and is a very typical fresh dessert/beverage sold in every corner throughout the hot months of the year – very refreshing

In this class:

Great cooking is about more than recipes – it’s about timing, technique and having fun. During our classes, you’ll be together with other enthusiasts in an interactive setting led by our chef.

Food preferences can be accommodated.  People under the age of 18, must be accompanied by an adult.

*taxes not included, wine, beer and spirits available, gratuities welcomed on site
