Eritrean/Ethiopian Cooking Class - Veggie Dishes

Learn simple techniques to prepare ethnic food that is rich in flavor. Ethiopian/Eritrean cooking relies on a diverse range of herbs and roots to develop characteristics quintessential to the cuisine. In this hands-on class, we'll be making three dishes (curried lentils, mildly spicy mushrooms, and collard greens/spinach) that will be served with Injera, the spongy sourdough flatbread unique to both countries.
