About the Event
Salsa is as simple as it is complex. In this hands on class, we will guide you through 3 distinct salsa styles. Starting with a salsa cruda (raw), you will learn how to properly balance raw ingredients. Through frying and emulsifying, you will make a creamy habanero salsa. You will coax flavor from roasted peppers and tomatoes to make a classic salsa molcajete. And lastly, you will learn to balance and embrace the bitterness of a salsa negra. This class is led by Emmanuel Galvan of Bolita Masa.
