Description
Get ready for a Spanish-style feast packed with sizzling pans, bold flavors and plenty of hands-on cooking. In this four-course class, you’ll start with patatas bravas, preparing crisp potatoes with a smoky, spicy bravas sauce. Next, you’ll make gambas al ajillo, cooking shrimp with garlic, olive oil and chili for that classic sizzling tapas flavor. You’ll also prepare a Spanish tortilla with potatoes and eggs, learning practical techniques for slicing, seasoning and cooking this iconic dish until tender and golden.
To finish, you’ll make a creamy Basque cheesecake, creating its signature caramelized top and rich center.
