Handcrafted Holiday Tamales

Cooking Class Description: For many, it is not the holiday season without tamales. The time-honored Mexican tradition is not only focused on the delicious result, but also the time spent together working towards the celebratory feast to enjoy as a family. In this class, we’ll cover all the essentials—you’ll learn how to craft fresh masa and make two types of flavorful fillings, then pair each type with a freshly made sauce. Plus, get in the holiday spirit by sipping on a rich, from-scratch champurrado, a delicious Mexican hot chocolate ideal for warming anyone up this winter.
