Part I Cooking Class Photos: Soups

These photos are of some of the soups we have made recently in cooking classes designed for Mexicans who mainly work for foreigners in San Miguel. The idea is to teach already proficient cooks international recipes. I like to think of it as a win-win situation, where the patrons benefit by enjoying new recipes and the cooks themselves feel empowered, inspired by learning tastes, recipes, and techniques that are often foreign to them.
