Unlike reading a recipe or watching a video, hands-on cooking classes allow you to engage your senses fully. You can touch, taste, and smell the fresh local ingredients like achiote, habanero chiles, and recado rojo, while learning proper techniques from our expert cook, Karlita.

By the end of the class, you’ll have more than just a recipe — you’ll have a meaningful cultural experience and a connection to the heart of Yucatecan traditions.
