The vibrant tastes and textures of the Southwest come to your home table in an in-person cooking class to savor. Chef Linda provides all the expertise you'll need to cook up a true fiesta! Create a set of savory starters that includes spicy street corn and tortilla chips before preparing a desert-style Caesar salad with pumpkin seeds and Cotija cheese. Cook up a batch of fiery chili rellenos and savory black beans seasoned with chilis and cumin. And no celebration this zesty is complete without delicately fried buñuelos and Mexican chocolate ice cream for dessert!

We learned loads of tips about knives, salt, cleaning the smell of garlic off your hands … and then there was the food which was delicious. A great evening of education and deliciousness
