Blanca had fun trying out the new mandoline slicer we brought her ~ it'll certainly come in handy
Yesterday our cooking club met for our monthly learning session and pig-out. This time it was at Blanca's house high on a hill overlooking the anchorage (I could see our boat from their deck). Blanca's a traditional Mexican cook who spends days on preparation, and we felt hugely blessed to partake of such a feast. Several of us remarked it was the best Mexican food we'd ever had.
Plus we learned some techniques. But most of them, such as making tamales, looked like way too much work for this bunch of gringas.
Go to our new blog,
Chop Chop Cooking Club, for more...

if we lived there, i would definitely join that club. i love tamales but you're right, they are a lot of work. my mom used to make them when we were growing up. they are also part of cuban cuisine. i've made several cuban dishes the last few days as matt just moved back from nyc and he loves mom's cooking. of course i made a flan-yum!
read my comment of billieblog to read about our crazy weather.
take care and have a tamal or 2 for me.
