Learn how easy it is to assemble a tapas spread and where to get the most authentic ingredients. In class, prepare a Tortilla de Papa (Spanish egg and potato tortilla), stuffed mushrooms, Little Pavian Soldiers (breaded fried cod), garlic shrimp, pork and beef meatballs, and eggplant caviar and garlic toasts. Then sit and enjoy your efforts (along with olives-of course!) with your fellow classmates. Cost: $56 for non-members or $44 for members plus a $20 materials fee.

Argentines are known the world over for their amazing grilling techniques. Come find out all about the art of the asado in this outdoor class! Learn to make provoleta (a grilled cheese appetizer), grilled eggplant, roscoldo sweet potatoes, short ribs and meat skewers served with chimichurri (the classic Argentine condiment) and salsa criolla (a sweet-pepper relish) and served with a typical green salad.

YEAR-ROUND:
CATERING: My menus emphasize Argentinean cuisine, but also incorporate many of the fresh and wholesome meals I make for my own family at home. I create unfussy dinners for working families, dinner parties for groups of ten or less, or a party menu for a larger crowd. Menus will be planned according to your needs, whether they be for a dozen medialunas to go with your morning coffee, or a dozen empanadas for your Argentinean wine tasting. If you are interested in catering, please contact Rebecca at rebeccatcaro@hotmail.com.
GIFT BASKETS: Let us assemble a unique gift basket featuring the tastes of Argentina. We'll take care of assembling and shipping your basket, including items like dulce de leche, yerba mate and a mate kit and a bottle of Malbec or Torrontes. A home-style basket can include alfajores, chimichurri, and other homemade treats. Call 720-524-8704 or email rebeccatcaro@hotmail.com for more details.
PRIVATE COOKING CLASSES: A group cooking class makes a fun night in with a group of friends, and you'll learn something, too! I'll travel to your kitchen (within the Denver/Boulder area) and will design the class according to what you want to learn. The evening will begin with a glass of wine and light snacks, followed by roughly two hours of instruction and hands-on participation. All participants will get a recipe packet and some new inspiration! Themes will be planned together to suit your group's needs. If you are interested in private cooking classes (individual or group) please contact Rebecca at rebeccatcaro@hotmail.com.
