About Kitchen EBS:

Chef Lymaris is originally from Puerto Rico, she enjoys cooking and teaching about Puerto Rican cuisine. Alcapurrias is one of her favorite appetizers, usually done fried, but Chef Lymaris prefers to bake them in plantain leaves. These delicious treat is a dough made with green bananas, pumpkin and taro root, then flavored with sofrito and usually stuffed with beef picadillo (vegetarian option will be with lentils). Mofongo is a traditional dish of Puerto Rico, found in any restaurant and household on the Island. Mofongo is mashed fried plantains mixed with butter and garlic and then stuffed with your choice of protein. Here it will be served with shrimp in salsa criolla, which is a tomato/sofrito based sauce (chicken option available, and for vegetarians mushroom in criolla sauce). Flan is one of the most common desserts in Latin culture. For Chef Lymaris, guava and cheese is one of her favorite flavors, mixing the sweetness of the guava and the saltiness of the cheese.

About the Program:

Nibble Kitchen is proud to re-introduce our Supper Club Program! Many members of the Nibble Community do not have the bandwidth (or desire) to take on the full Chef-in-Residency Program, but still want the opportunity to grow their businesses and showcase their cultures and cuisines. Programs like this Supper Club enable Nibble members to gain valuable experience in kitchen operations management, connect with the Somerville community, showcase their cuisine and culture, and mitigate the risks of a traditional pop-up by selling tickets ahead of time!
