Chef Sujhey Beisser of Five Senses Palate.

This past year has brought many back into the kitchen or into the kitchen for the first time. By now, though, we may be getting a bit bored with our go-to dishes, whether that's a burger or stir-fry or even something more complex. This virtual cooking class featuring Sujhey Beisser of Five Senses Palate will instruct participants in creating dynamite Latin flavors, specifically beef or mushroom empanadas and the secret behind guasacaca, the thin avocado salsa that makes literally everything taste better. Sujhey will also show class members how to make a mean sangria, alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions. Registrants will receive a grocery list, a supply list, and a copy of the recipe that should be purchased ahead of time. The class will be live but you can also participate via a recording at your convenience. The first 40 people to sign up for the live class will receive a $5 gift card toward the purchase of their ingredients at the Willy Street Co-op. Organized by students from Madison College, this fundraiser supports the Centro Hispano BECAS (education scholarships) Program. Donate and register here.
