Peruvian Cooking

Peruvian cuisine is not really a well-known cooking style, and one of its most memorable dishes may linger in the memory for the wrong reasons - roast guinea pig! However there are some very tasty dishes for which Peru can be rightly proud. 

If you have a half day to spare whilst in Cusco, you could learn to cook an authentic Peruvian meal, and enjoy learning new skills in the process. 

You will first be taken shopping by a local English-speaking cook, browsing amongst the market stalls with the local people to buy ingredients. Food shopping the Andean way is an interactive experience! Then, back at the cook's house you make a start, preparing a Pisco Sour, starters and main courses. This is hands-on rather than a demonstration, and you will be shown what to do at each stage. By the end, together you'll have produced a tasty lunch to share, washed down with a glass of wine. You'll leave with a unique souvenir to take home - the ability to cook a Peruvian meal!
