It is 89 degrees in Puerto Vallarta with 92 percent humidity–ouch! Take a staycation instead and join Chef Philip Feder to learn his favorite tacos right here in Denver. Philip travels regularly to Puerto Vallarta to study authentic Mexican cooking techniques. Let him show you how to make some traditional salsas using a mocajete. These pictures were taken in a recent class and give you an idea of the exciting new flavors that await you. So save all that money and avoid airport hassles by taking his upcoming taco classes right at home!
Also during the month of August see Chef Philip’s other classes, Cookin Cajun and Bangup BBQ.
See you soon! — Philip
A recent participant in Philip’s taco class had this to say:

“After having taken two courses in Homemade Street Tacos with CFU’s Chef Phil, I have entered a new world of exploration and confidence. I was once intimidated by jalapenos, for instance. Now they are my friends, as well as chipotles, poblanos, tomatillos and achiote. I have learned to approach cooking with more confidence and an adventurous attitude that I simply did not have before. I regularly make my own salsa now, in 4 varieties, will handle a pork shoulder with gusto (something I would never have thought of doing) and to date have made carnitas, cocinitas pibil, empanadas and enchiladas of several types. I’m looking forward to more fun with new lessons.”
