Service Description

Discover one of Yucatán’s favorite traditional dishes: empanadas de chaya. A hands-on masterclass to learn how to prepare delicious empanadas made with a corn masa mixed with cooked chaya leaves—an ancient leafy green native to the region. You’ll master the technique of shaping the dough and filling it with queso de bola (Edam cheese), a specialty that has become a beloved part of Yucatecan cuisine. Once fried to golden perfection, the empanadas are served hot, with the cheese melted inside for a rich and satisfying bite. You’ll prepare a fresh tomato sauce and Xnipec (red onions with habanero) the perfect accompaniments that bring out the empanadas’ unique flavors. This masterclass is an invitation to taste, create, and celebrate the essence of Yucatecan culinary tradition. • Your own handmade Empanadas • Xnipec: Red onions with habanero • Special Salsa: Jitomate Tamulado Private experience For 1 or up to 2 guests.
