Artichokes are a star of the spring season, but many home cooks find this prickly vegetable intimidating to prepare. We can’t think of a better way of improving skill and increasing confidence than by practicing alongside fellow cooks! Cooking in your own home kitchen, you’ll venture into the versatility of this delicious flower with the guidance and encouragement of Camila. She’ll be teaching from her home kitchen in Barcelona, where local producers proudly grow an abundance of artichokes.
We’ll start class by slowly and carefully cleaning artichokes. Doing so in a group setting is so much less boring and tedious, as we can laugh, chat, and tell stories as we go. Getting to the tender and tasty heart of the artichoke will be a shared triumph, and after, you’ll learn three Spanish preparations of this thistle bud.
