Itinerary and highlights
Join Natalie, a MasterChef Argentina finalist, in her charming Belgrano Chico home for a hands-on Buenos Aires cooking class that immerses you in authentic Argentine cuisine. Begin with a traditional humita (corn-based aperitif) and a glass of vermouth, then taste Northern Argentinean potatoes with chorizo, Argentina’s famous pork sausage. Learn to prepare classic dishes like empanadas, sweet pancakes filled with dulce de leche, and Natalie’s slow-cooked carbonada stew with sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and peaches, finished with her special spicy sauce. Dessert includes a modern twist on dulce de leche. Meals are served in her elegant dining room in winter or on her sunny terrace in summer. During spring and summer, a traditional Argentine barbecue can be arranged. Natalie shares insider tips on ingredients, cooking techniques, and presentation, leaving you with recipes and a deep understanding of Argentine food culture. If you have any dietary restrictions, allergies, or specific local foods you’d like to try in Buenos Aires, please let Natalie know in advance so she can customize your Argentine cooking class menu.
