About this Event

Join world-traveling chef Sylvia Becker in our Hudson Valley/Berkshire kitchen as she takes us on a virtual trip to Spain and the world of Paella. Rather than being cooked over an open fire (as romantic as that sounds) Sylvia will show how to make Paella on the stove so anyone can create this iconic dish at home.

As the hands-on class begins, you’ll nibble on tapas - Toasty tomato and garlic bread with olive oil - a classic Spanish starter, as well as Manchego cheese and serrano ham. Then we’ll start our preparations for two types of Paella - Chicken with Chorizo and a classic seafood version. Once you understand the technique you may customize it at home to suit you and your guests’ preferences.


Class menu to include:
  • Tomato, olive oil and garlic bread tapas
  • Manchego Cheese
  • Serrano Ham
  • Paella with Chicken and Chorizo
  • Seafood Paella

This hands-on cooking class is limited to ten people and includes lunch.
