The Art of Carnitas & Homemade Tortillas - Online
Crispy, golden-edged carnitas with juicy, melt-in-your-mouth centers… this is what taco dreams are made of. Join this chef-led, hands-on cook-along and create a full-flavored from scratch carnita feast in your own kitchen. You will learn to create tender, flavorful carnitas using an electric multi-cooker and learn the essential techniques and ingredients that make this mouthwatering melt-in-your-mouth dish.
From there, you’ll learn how to make both soft flour tortillas, and traditional corn tortillas from scratch, gaining confidence in working with different types of dough. To complete the experience, we’ll prepare quick-pickled red onions that add the perfect bright, tangy contrast that brings everything together into the perfect bite.
On the menu: Multi-cooker Carnitas, handcrafted flour tortillas, handcrafted corn tortillas, and quick-pickled red onions.
Equipment Needs: Electric Multi-cooker (any brand), non-stick pan, stand-mixer with paddle & dough hook attachments (optional).
Participants will receive a list of ingredients in advance of the class to allow time for shopping. Have your questions answered by the instructor and interact with other participants as you cook-along. While cooking along is loads of fun, it is optional. Participants will also receive a copy of the instructor’s personal recipes in PDF format following the class. This class will take place on Zoom.
