At the Milk Street Cooking School
Yana Gilbuena, a Filipino-born, critically acclaimed nomadic chef, joins Milk Street for one very special hands-on cooking class. Best known for her vibrant pop up the Salo Series, Yana is also a teacher eager to make Filipino food accessible to cooks around the world so we invited her to Boston to guide you through making a memorable feast. Recipes include sinigang poke/kinilaw (filipino ceviche), mushroom sisig (a vegetarian version of the Filipino classic pork dish), ginataang gulay (vegetables in coconut curry) and red cabbage atchara (a pickled condiment). We'll end the day sharing a communal meal of these dishes plus a few more treats.
