La Cocina Que Canta

My job here at the Ranch is to teach 3 hands on cooking classes, while enjoying everything else that is offered—what’s not to love? Tuesday morning, Tuesday evening, and Thursday evening I teach at the cooking school, La Cocina Que Canta (The Kitchen that Sings) 


Gabriella giving instructions (she rocks!)


Salvador (It's HIS garden), Gaby, and Juan

All ready for dinner!

The Courtyard


Stations set up

Mise en place

Picking chives for our saute


The absolutely ridiculous and ugly border fence---the only thing it keeps out are indigenous animals

Picking Kale

Strawberries


It’s a joy to take the students into Rancho Tres Estrellas (3 Star Ranch) to meet Salvador and to see his passion for the garden, and the ranch.  That is a recurring theme here, the employees and the guests have an affinity for this place, and many employees work here for decades.  The visitors are mostly returnees; it’s that special. 
 Tomorrow I'll post photos from our other classes.
