Description

After listening to feedback from our students in previous cooking classes, we realized there’s a lack of vegan and vegetarian options that truly showcase the essence of Portuguese cuisine. Inspired by their thoughts and stories, we’ve created this special experience to ensure visitors to our country can savor some of its culinary wonders without compromise! What’s on the Menu? • Vegetable Pataniscas: A plant-based twist on the beloved Pataniscas de Bacalhau, these crispy vegetable fritters are packed with flavor and tradition. • Mushroom Açorda: A hearty reinterpretation of the Alentejo classic, traditionally made with meats, now transformed into a comforting dish featuring mushrooms and Portuguese bread. • Vegetable à Brás: Inspired by Bacalhau à Brás, this dish swaps codfish for vibrant vegetables, combined with crispy potatoes and a creamy base, all tied together with a touch of Portuguese flair. • A Typical Portuguese Dessert: To complete your meal, enjoy a delicious dessert made with seasonal ingredients, carefully selected to highlight traditional flavors. What Makes This Class Unique? • Zero Waste Philosophy: This is a waste zero cooking class, where you’ll learn how to use every part of the ingredients, ensuring nothing goes to waste. It’s not just about cooking—it’s about sustainability and respecting our food! • Knife Skills Workshop: Begin your class with a hands-on knife skills session, where you’ll master essential techniques to chop, dice, and slice like a pro. These skills will elevate your cooking at home and make the rest of the class even more enjoyable. What to Expect: • Learn how to prepare these iconic dishes step by step, using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. • Discover the history and traditions behind each recipe, as well as tips to bring these flavors to your own kitchen. • Share your creations with the group during a delightful meal at the end of the class. • Enjoy a selection of included beverages throughout the class and meal, including water, wine, and tea. • To make your experience even more enjoyable, we’ll send everyone a PDF with all the recipes after the class. This way, you can fully enjoy the moment without worrying about taking notes! This class is perfect for vegans, vegetarians, or anyone curious about experiencing the flavors of Portugal in a plant-based way. Join us for a fun, sustainable, and skill-building culinary adventure!
