OakCali Cafe will teach participants the variety of the infamous Ethiopian platter. And we believe that cooking is always better with company, so come join us on a learning journey and gain a deeper appreciation for the traditions and flavors that make Ethiopian food so special, while also contributing to the preservation and promotion of this culinary heritage. What's Going to Be There? Saturday's will feature vegetarian and vegan dishes to show how we chop, spice, and serve our delicious cultural foods. We'll learn how to cook dishes from Missir Wot (red lentils) to Atakilt (cooked cabbage, potato, and carrot in a turmeric sauce). Sundays will be a mix of vegetarian and meat dishes, giving those an option to cook holiday and celebration meals. We will cook dishes like Doro Wot (spicy chicken sauce) and Kitfo (ground beef in oil and spices). Why Should You Attend? It's not just about learning recipes—it's about understanding the cultural significance behind each dish. Our knowledgeable instructors will delve into the history and heritage of Ethiopian cooking, sharing stories and insights that add depth to your culinary journey. This cooking class will be an experience you can't afford to miss! In the end, you're bound to leave with a full belly, a satisfied palate, and a newfound passion for Ethiopian cuisine that will linger long after the class ends. So why wait? Reserve your spot today and embark on a culinary adventure like no other!
