Cooking Class: Make a Mexican-Inspired Holiday Spread

Create a delectable Mexico-inspired menu in this Christmas cooking class. First, you’ll make melty queso infused with spices and the warming flavors of poblano peppers. Then, create a zesty take on classic lasagna by making fresh pasta sheets from scratch to be layered with corn, zucchini and cheese. You’ll also whip up a fresh salad of bright citrus fruits, earthy beets and crunchy jicama tossed in a gourmet dressing. For dessert, bake classic shortbread cookies with the delightful rich flavor of Mexican hot chocolate.

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
