Taste the Andes: A Traditional Cooking Experience!
Get ready to spice up your culinary skills with a delicious dive into Andean flavors! This interactive cooking demonstration will guide you through the preparation of two beloved dishes from the Andean region:
Buñuelos – A classic Colombian treat, these golden, cheesy dough balls are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Perfect for breakfast or as a festive snack, buñuelos are a staple of Colombian kitchens and celebrations.
Solterito – A refreshing salad from Arequipa, Peru, packed with fava beans, corn, queso fresco, and olives. Traditionally enjoyed by singles looking to stay fit while searching for love, this dish is as light and lively as its name suggests!
Whether you're a foodie, a culture lover, or just curious about Andean cuisine, this demo offers a flavorful way to connect with tradition and community.
Come hungry—and leave inspired!
This is an interactive event that is open to older kids.
