What You’ll Experience

We will meet at an ancient church located at the heart of Tacuba; which history goes way back before the spanish arrived to America. Steps away is the Tacuba Market where we will buy the fresh ingredients to cook our delicious variety of mexican salsas. Then we will head to my place, 5 minutes walking from the market and will get right to business. We will cook salsas in the four traditional ways: raw, fried, boiled and roasted. All different in personality, flavor, chile and spicy level. You will be surprised how easy it is to cook salsa, at the same time we will prepare some quesadillas to eat with our salsas. Unlimited jamaica water included. At the end you will leave with a jar of salsa and new recepies to take home! When booking this experience you also support the local commerce. Please consider experience can be held in more than one language simultaneously. If you prefer different time or day, we can arrange it! See more of us on Instagram @mexicansalsas
