Day 1 Cooking Class with a Beef Summelier

 



Yesterday we had a chill day, we hung out the Airbnb for most of the day, we went to local supermarket to stock up on food that was fun in itself, we went to COTO a local supermarket chain that's more like a super target than anything else. Today I learned that Argentinians call Mantequilla Manteca, and Manteca is "grasa" good to know. 


Speaking of grasa, man, we had a cooking class with a "Beef Sommelier" We found this guy that gives private cooking lessons at Airbnb, he picked us up and took us to his house where we learned to make traditional empanadas from scratch, then he gave us an explanation of the different types of cattle breeds, cuts, and feeding methods, it was very educational, entertaining and now we see what the fuzz is about. The meat was delicious. It was a wonderful evening.
