This unrivalled experience is the authenticity of learning directly from a chef native to the Yucatan Peninsula. It’s not just a recipe, it’s an immersion in my culture within a private and exclusive culinary study.

Unlike the mass classes, here we focus on detail: from the perfect balance of the marinade of Chicken Pibil to the exact technique to achieve handmade tortillas and crispy churros. It is an intimate, technical and flavorful class, designed for those who seek to take the real secret of Mexican cuisine home, sharing the table as friends at the end.

What to expect

Welcome to my culinary study! In this authentic experience, I will take you hand in hand to discover the secrets of Yucatecan cuisine. As a chef from Yucatan, I will share with you the traditional techniques that have been passed down through the generations.

During the class you will learn and participate in:

The Art of the Taste : We will prepare from scratch the traditional marinade for an authentic Chicken Pibil, learning the exact balance of spices and annatto.

Cooking Techniques: We will bring the chicken to its exact point of flavor and softness.

Dough and Tortillas : You will learn to toast and cook your own tortillas by hand, the soul of any Mexican table.

Yucatecan sauces: We will make artisan sauces (including the iconic habanero and purple onion) to accompany our dishes.

The Sweet Touch: To close with a golden clasp, we will cook traditional crispy churros.

Tasting :
At the end of the preparation, we will sit down to enjoy a feast with everything cooked. We will taste the dishes together in a private and relaxed atmosphere, sharing stories and the true taste of my land.
