Traditional Amazonian cooking workshop

This experience allows participation in a workshop to learn the secrets of Amazonian gastronomy, which is based on fish and local ingredients such as yucca, plantain, and chonta, found in the Peruvian jungle.

We will meet at 8 am at Hospedaje Los Incas to begin our journey. First, we will visit a local farm or plantation to select fresh fruits and vegetables for our dishes.

Next, we will go to the local market to choose additional fresh ingredients. Upon returning, we will prepare two starters, two main courses, and a dessert while learning about the history of Amazonian gastronomy and each ingredient's properties.

The starters will include Amazonian ceviche and chonta or palm heart salad. We can choose from options like fish casserole, patarashca, tacacho, and inchicapi for the main courses. The dessert will be revealed during the activity.

After about 2.5 hours of cooking, we will sit down to enjoy the dishes accompanied by a fruit drink.

The workshop will conclude after lunch at 3 pm.
