? Full Description
Your culinary journey begins with a warm welcome and a step-by-step introduction to Dominican flavors. You’ll start by cleaning and seasoning fresh red snapper using traditional techniques. Next, you’ll grate fresh coconut to extract natural coconut milk, which forms the base of the dish’s signature sauce.
As the sauce simmers with onions, peppers, and garlic, the aromas fill the kitchen with rich Caribbean fragrance. You’ll gently cook the fish in the creamy coconut mixture until it becomes tender and flavorful. To complete the meal, you’ll prepare classic Dominican sides including cassava, plantains, and rice.
This class is designed for beginners and skilled cooks alike — meaning anyone can enjoy a fun, educational, and flavorful cultural experience.
