Punta Cana: ‘Chillo al Coco’ Cooking Lesson with Transfer

In this class, you will learn about traditional Taino cooking techniques and use fresh local ingredients to create a mouth-watering dish that will transport you straight to the Caribbean. Our main ingredient will be the succulent Red Snapper, which we will pair with cassava, plantain, and rice to create a balanced and flavorful meal.

We will start by preparing the fish, cleaning and seasoning it with a blend of aromatic herbs and spices. Then we will move on to the star of the show, the coconut sauce. Using freshly grated coconut, we will extract the milk to create a smooth and creamy base for the sauce. We will add a mix of peppers, onions, and garlic to give it a bit of heat and depth of flavor.

Once the sauce is ready, we will add the fish and let it simmer until it’s fully cooked, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. Finally, we will pair our delicious Chillo al coco with cassava, plantain, and rice for a complete and satisfying meal.

This class is suitable for participants of all ages, whether you’re a seasoned cook or a beginner. You will leave with a deeper understanding of Dominican cuisine and a newfound appreciation for the flavors and techniques of Taino cooking. So come join us for a fun and delicious cooking adventure!
