Yes am about to have a 15yrs old daughter. And I always tell her the past 15yrs has been an amazing experience for me being her mother. She has her teenager moments but she is really a great kid.
Now Destiny loves to cook just like me…so I decided with her birthday coming up soon why not do a Peruvian cooking class with her…so we did…and will start with our pictures so you can see…
We got picked up my our famous chef in Peru..off we go to explore the Peruvian cooking
Then my favorite part begins ….I am an addicted grocery shopper…lol!!!
We got to make new LLF’S while at the cooking class…such amazing couple from New Orleans. Will probably meet them when we do our usa tour…
Look at that priceless smiles…
I love this setup….
Yeap she is holding a sea urchins and it’s her first time…
We are ready to learn….
That’s our chef in the black apron…he is a famous Peruvian chef…
And she is helping out…team work..
What we cooked…it’s a potato cake..with shrimps mix in the middle..tasty but a little heavy to eat the whole cake…
That’s Destiny’s creation..
Our second dish….because peru has about 20,000 different potatoes they pretty much use it in any dish they can create…I would too if I had that many options…that’s sweet potatoes with some tasty sauce…
Ok so this one is called Cebientchi (probably got the name spelt wrong) but it’s their national dish….now I was not crazy about it and I think is just in the mind that the fish is not cooked with heat…but the sauce around it was delicious and that sweet potatoes was dipped in this tasty sugar, orange juice and spices sauce and it was the bomb….yummy..
She is ready to taste her hard work…
All the 3 dishes we made …all Peruvian dishes..
Family that cooks together get to sit at the table and eat it all up together…
Our twork drinks we made…the one of the right is the traditional pisco sour and the one on the left is a passion fruit pisco…pisco is the traditional Peruvian drink with alcohol. It was tasty but with my little tolerance of alcohol I did not finish it but now i can say I have had pisco.
Peruviancooking class wit my daughter was definitely memorable and priceless to have this experience with her. I love you Destiny Alberta Adjoa Manns…
And thank you to our chef Hector for helping us create this moment of mother and daughter memorable experience.
Peruvian Exploration Continues. ….
