About

Embark on a culinary adventure that’s sure to tantalize your taste buds when the vibrant flavors of the Sonoran Desert meet the festive spirit of Argentina. This class offers a hands-on experience crafting a sumptuous Matambre, a Sonoran flank steak seasoned to perfection and stuffed with a medley of corn and potatoes which not only adds flavor but also creates a visually stunning dish when sliced and served with an ancho chile jus. Matambre showcases the vibrant culinary traditions of South America, where food is not only a necessity but an art form, celebrated and savored.

Complementing the main course is a zesty Elote Salad drizzled with a zesty tomatillo dressing. For a sweet finale indulge in the tropical sweet symphony of the South American version of bananas foster – caramelized bananas using the traditional preparation along with cardamom and cloves to give a unique flavor profile reflecting the diverse culinary heritage of the continent, crowned with caramelized papaya and a scoop of ice cream.

This class isn't just about following recipes; it's about enhancing your culinary skills, understanding the nuances of flavor combinations, and enjoying the process of creating something truly extraordinary. Whether you're a seasoned chef or a curious foodie, Chef Brett will provide personalized attention, ensuring you leave with the confidence to recreate these dishes at home.
