The Tamale Experience: Mastering Traditional Tamales - Thursday, October 29th

Tamales are more than a dish—they’re a celebration of home, laughter, and fellowship in the kitchen. In this hands-on cooking class, you’ll join us at The Sweet & Savory Classroom to embrace the joy of making tamales with friends and family. We’ll start by preparing fresh, flavorful components that bring each tamale to life. You’ll learn to make masa from scratch, create vibrant sauces, and assemble tamales that honor tradition while exploring a modern twist. One tamale will stay true to classic roots, while the other introduces a creative, contemporary flavor—showing just how versatile this beloved dish can be. To complete the meal, we’ll prepare grilled corn with lime and Cotija and finish with a sweet treat of Mexican Wedding Cookies. Every step is designed to be fun, engaging, and full of laughter—you’ll leave with new skills, new flavors, and a kitchen full of memories.
