    What To Expect

    The best way to learn about traditional Oaxacan Cuisine is to experience it! Cooking class is an interactive cooking workshop run by a local family that offers a fun and exciting way to learn traditional Mexican cuisine while also enjoying drinks and sharing different tasks.

    This class is hands-on and collaborative. You will prepare the dishes as a group, each person sharing responsibility for different steps in preparation of the 3 course meals that you will enjoy together with complementary mezcalitas.

    The course meals includes: two types of salsa, one starter , one main meal and one dessert.

    Menu selection takes place as a group before we enter the market in the city.
    Most meals can be adapted to vegetarian or vegan options with advance notice.
    We will buy Fresh corn dough " Masa nixtamalizada" for tortillas and the base of the starter. However the rest of the meals are prepared from scratch.

    After shopping and visiting the market, there is private transportation to a local home and trip back to the meet up location at centro.
