Lamb and Vegetarian Empanadas

What a better way to celebrate Hispanic Heritage than taking a culinary trip down to Argentina and taste the flavors of Buenos Aires. Join Chef Gato Storace, live from Buenos Aires as he shows how to make one of Argentina’s most popular dish: empanadas.

We believe access to this cooking class should be free, to help people understand the richness of latinos culture.
