The food of Mexico has the distinction of being one of the world's very first fusion cuisines. It uses an alluring blend of elements introduced by the Spanish with those of this country's fascinating indigenous people. Mexican food is popular around the world for its hot and spicy flavours, yet its truly authentic dishes have much more to offer than just heat.
The secret of Mexico's memorable cuisine lies in the subtle interplay of the earthy and the pungent mixed with simple, fresh ingredients: corn, beans and a vast array of chiles, through to the use of fresh fish, succulent seafood and both chicken and turkey. Add to that, a cornucopia of exotic fruits and vegetables, and you've got a rich tapestry from which to create sumptuous dishes. One might say that the art of Mexican cooking is a paradox: complex yet completely unpretentious.
At The Little Mexican Cooking School our goal is to teach you as much about the traditions and culture of these foods, as well as the methods in which to make them. So, whether you are a novice in the kitchen, a curious cook or a gourmet chef looking to expand your repertoire... we offer you insight, fun and a unique experience in our entertaining and informative classes.
