Here, we go beyond tacos to explore some lesser known Mexican staples. You will learn how to create authentic, plant-based dishes which celebrate the variety and intense flavours of Mexican cuisine.
We begin with a hands-on demonstration where you learn how to make corn tortillas from their raw ingredients whilst you enjoy a little aperitif – sangrita. You will be able to taste and compare them with a roast tomato salsa. You will go on to make your own Mole de Calabaza (moh-lay day cal-a-bath-a). In Mexican cuisine a mole is a sauce, in this case of tomato, onion, ancho chillies, pumpkin seeds, basil and coriander. The Calabaza is a roast pumpkin. We will sample the results on completion, and you will have enough to take home to enjoy later.
Everyone is welcome!
