Valenciano Sweet & Savory Siesta – a cooking class with Kogetsu

Nothing quite says summer like the Mediterranean cuisine from coastal Spain. Following many years of living in a small Spanish village in the Valencia region, Kogetsu brought home her favorite (pre-siesta) tapas, soups and other dishes from that very special part of the world. She will share how to combine simple, sun-kissed ingredients to create restorative, seasonal Spanish meals. We’ll have the aprons ready in our Hudson Valley/Berkshires kitchen for this hands-on class. Bring your appetite and willing hands as we create these dishes together, but leave your pillow at home, our kitchen can’t accommodate a siesta!

Menu to include:

• 2 kinds of Gazpacho
• Spanish Tortilla
• Berenjas Con Meil (Aubergines with Honey)
• Pan con Tomate
• Patatas Bravo
• Valencian White Citrus Sangria

This hands-on class (plus lunch) is limited to ten people.
