This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional Puerto Rican culture and cuisine. Yeira welcomes you into her home with a delicious tropical cocktail and then teaches you to cook 4-5 dishes. Your hands-on 2-hour cooking lesson includes cooking demonstrations. A few dishes you might learn to cook are a main such as pollo en salsa criolla (Caribbean style chicken stew) or churrasco (skirt steak) with chimichurri, two side dishes such as arroz con gandules (traditional rice in Puerto Rico with green pigeon peas) or Caribbean style rice and beans, mofongo or yuca al mojo with sofrito (Puerto Rican seasoning), and a dessert. Your meal is served with a fresh salad. The menu varies and is created based on the season, availability of ingredients, and guests' dietary restrictions. Your meal also includes an appetizer that your hosts may have prepared in advance. After cooking, enjoy the dishes you helped prepare on Yeira's beautiful outdoor terrace. At the end of this culinary experience, you will leave with a full stomach, an understanding of Puerto Rican cuisine and culture, two Puerto Rican eBooks to share with your loved ones, and memorable stories!
