The Experience

keyboard_arrow_up

In traditional cuisines throughout the world, you’ll find some form of a hearty little pie with a crispy outer crust and savory fillings inside. If you’re in India, you’ll snack on samosas; in Cornwall, England, a pasty will be just the thing; and in much of Latin America, it’ll be empanadas on the menu. Join seasoned chef and baker Rosemary Garcia for a live online class in making authentic empanadas and exploring the global variations of this universally irresistible dish.

  • Rosemary will share her recipe for Puerto Rican empanadas with a piquant vegetarian filling of mushrooms or beans.
  • You’ll make the dough and filling from scratch, learn how to stuff and crimp those pockets to perfection, and get tips on both baking and frying in oil for best results.
  • For those with a sweet tooth, Rosemary will demonstrate how to adapt the recipe to make dessert empanadas with a luscious fruit filling.
  • Explore the cultural history of empanadas and discover how the dish varies in cuisines of the Americas, Africa, Europe, and Asia.
Class length: 90 minutes.
