On Friday, September 16, 2022, culinary workshops devoted to Mexican cuisine took place. The workshops are organized as part of the project “The world on a plate” – 2021-2- PL01-ESC30-SOL-000040182.
However, before the participants started to prepare the dishes, Mrs. Mariola, the teacher, introduced the seniors to the traditions and culture of Mexican cuisine. Exotic Mexican cuisine is one of the most interesting cuisines in the world. It is full of colors, flavors and aromas. A special feature of traditional Mexican cuisine is the blend of ingredients, recipes and cooking methods by Native Americans and Spanish conquerors.
The basic foods used in Mexican cuisine for savory dishes include legumes (including beans), peppers (both hot and mild) and corn.
At the workshop, we found out how to easily and quickly prepare:
- QUESADILLA WITH SWEET FRUIT,
- BURRITO or TACO DE HARINA,
- GUACAMOLE – MEXICAN PASTA (salsa, dip) with avocado,
- Mexican SOPA DE LIMA – sour lime soup.
The prepared dishes turned out to be incredibly delicious, aromatic and fully reflects the taste of Mexico.
