Private Market Tour and Traditional Chilean Cooking Class in a Local Home

Meet your host Jorge at his home and drive to the local market together. Jorge will give you a tour of the market and you may even buy fresh ingredients to use in your cooking class later. Jorge offers a cooking demonstration, where you will learn to cook Chilean dishes in his home kitchen. His kitchen is a modest kitchen, so you might use the dining area for demonstrations and to prep the ingredients for your meal. The cooking portion of the experience will last approximately 1 hour, during which you will learn to make 1-2 dishes. A few dishes that you might try are palta reina with tuna (tuna stuffed avocado), fresh bruschetta with Chilean canned mussel, pastel de papas (a classic dish made in Chilean homes, not always found in restaurants, it is something close to a shepherd’s pie) and Chilean Papayas with cream.  This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about Chilean culture and cuisine from a warm and welcoming local - you're sure in for a real treat!
