One of the best ways to explore a new city and learn about their culture is through food, and on this
Virtual Cooking Class, you will be travelling with your senses to South America. Learn how to make one of the most popular Argentine staples - ‘
Empanadas’. They are an Argentine dish, extremely popular across the country that has grown to become a large part of
Argentina’s food culture.
Empanadas can be found all over South America but in
Argentina, every province has its own variety. They are hand-sized savoury pies and in Buenos Aires, (Argentina's capital) they are usually filled with
ground or
minced beef,
ham and
cheese,
chicken, or
swiss chard often prepared with a
Béchamel-like sauce called 'Salsa Blanca' (White Sauce). For locals, there is no such thing as the ‘right time to eat them’ and they are perfect as a snack, a starter, a side or a full meal.
On this
Virtual Cooking Class, you will learn how to make empanadas from scratch starting with the traditional dough side by side with your instructor on a seamless video call. Your chef will adapt to your pace, guide you step by step, and share their
homemade empanadas recipe while telling you about life in Argentina and its rich culinary history.
