Class Description:
It's couples night here at the Culinary Center! Master the art of comforting homestyle Mexican cuisine as you and your partner work side-by-side, creating a sensational four-course summer meal bursting with bold flavors while learning traditional cooking techniques. Your guide is Chef and longtime instructor, Sergio Lara. Chef Sergio has travelled Mexico extensively, bringing back recipes that use traditional ingredients from Mexico’s incredibly diverse culinary landscape. Chef Sergio brings a true gift for understanding great cooking techniques, and a passion for culinary education.

Chef Sergio will start you off with the classic Chiles Rellenos Poblano, roasted poblano peppers stuffed with creamy mashed potatoes and a blend of three cheeses fried crispy and golden. Our next dish is the ultimate in Mexican comfort- , a beloved simple soup made with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and thin noodles. It wouldn’t be homestyle Mexican without chilaquiles: fried corn tortillas with spicy serrano chiles, fresh cilantro, tomatoes verdes, and topped with a creamy queso fresco. To cap off your evening, we can’t let you go without indulging in Chef Sergio's infamous Mexican caramel flan, a lusciously creamy baked custard infused with caramelized sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and a hint of rich, dark rum. ¡Buen provecho!

This evening’s featured cocktail for purchase is the CCKC “Signature" Margarita: a refreshing blend of lime, Triple Sec, and Mexican beer, the perfect pairing for your culinary fiesta.
