Class
About this activity
After settling in with a welcome drink and snacks, join Casto in his cozy kitchen for a hands-on cooking class that will last for one hour. You will learn to make two dishes in this vegan cooking class, such as taho (a silky soymilk custard) and adobong talong (eggplant braised in a soy and vinegar reduction). By the end of your cooking class, you will successfully learn to use plant-based ingredients to recreate Casto’s interpretation of traditional Filipino dishes. Later join him at the dining table to share the meal you helped prepare and a few other dishes that he prepared in advance.
After your cooking class, a few dishes that you might try at Casto’s dining table are paksiw na langka (sweet and savory jackfruit stew), beetroot kilawin (roasted beet "ceviche"), and his signature six grain pilaf. You will end your meal with a unique composed dessert, such as a soymilk milk panna cotta with mango jam and ube (purple yam) shortbread. You can also opt to enjoy your meal with some local wine or a seasonal gin and tonic (at an additional cost, choose the alcohol option while booking).
