Tex-Mex Tacos + Homemade Tortillas – a Cooking Class with Matthew White

October 26 @ 11:00 am - 1:30 pm

$120.00

Who doesn’t love Taco Night? In this part hands-on, part demonstration class HGS Home Chef proprietor Matthew White calls upon his Texas roots (plus a year living in Mexico) to share a cooking class that will inspire you to add some spice to your life. Homemade corn tortillas are key, and in this class everyone will have a hand in making them. Besides the tacos (with two different fillings – easy chicken and yummy vegetarian) we’ll have a deconstructed guacamole salad, two types of homemade salsa, and a tasting of Matthew’s favorite from-scratch margarita. The take-away of this class will be how to blend the special homemade elements with some time-saving shortcuts so even as a host your taco party is fun.

Menu to include:

  • Homemade Corn Tortillas
  • Chicken Tacos with fresh Salsa Verde
  • Black Bean + Roasted Sweet Potato Tacos with Quick Salsa
  • Deconstructed Guacamole Salad
  • Matthew’s From-Scratch Margarita

This part-demonstration/part-hands-on class (plus lunch) is limited to ten people.
