Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll learn the art of crafting traditional Sonoran cheeses! In this class, you'll discover the secrets behind three essential Mexican cheeses:
Queso Fresco: A fresh, crumbly cheese, perfect for topping your favorite dishes.
Crema: A rich, pourable cream, a staple in Mexican cuisine.
Panela: A smooth, firm cheese that's excellent for grilling or enjoying fresh.
New Mexico cheese guild co-instructors Lorenzo Cabrera and Lissa Knudsen will guide you through each step of the cheesemaking process, from curdling the milk to pressing and shaping the final products. You'll gain practical skills and knowledge that you can use to recreate these delicious cheeses in your own kitchen.
This workshop is perfect for:
Home cooks wanting to expand their culinary skills
Cheese enthusiasts eager to learn about hispanic style cheeses
By the end of the class, you'll not only have the satisfaction of making your own cheese but also a deeper appreciation for the rich culinary traditions of our neighbors to the South.
