Cooking, Culture, & Conversations

Step into the kitchen and experience the flavors of Soul Food in this AfroFlavors Cooking Class.
This isn’t just a cooking workshop – it’s a cultural journey where food, history, and community come together.

Over the course of the class, you’ll:

• Cook iconic dishes: Learn how to prepare African American soul food favorites like crispy fried fish/chicken, slow-simmered greens, creamy mac & cheese, and golden cornbread.
• Discover food history: Hear stories of how African traditions shaped the cooking of the American South and how these flavors traveled across the diaspora.
• Hands-on learning: Chop, season, stir, and fry alongside your instructor in an engaging, interactive setting.
• Taste and connect: Sit down family-style to enjoy the soul food feast you’ve prepared, paired with wine or a refreshing local drink.

By the end of the experience, you’ll not only leave with recipes and new skills, but also a deeper connection to the culture and stories behind soul food.

Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned cook, this class is designed to be fun, flavorful, and unforgettable.
