Spicy, fragrant and oh so flavorful - that's the essence of Ethiopian cuisine. This plant-centric cooking style incorporates aromatic ginger and garlic along with warm spices and the delicious spice blend Berbere. This class will be a exploration of flavor under the careful guidance of Sam Ghebreyesus. 

Meet your instructor: Samuel Ghebreyesus. Sam grew up in Ethiopia, Africa. His passion for food began by watching his Mother and Aunt in the kitchen as they prepared the beloved traditional dishes of his childhood. When life’s journey brought him to Baton Rouge, he honed his cooking skills by learning to prepare the Cajun and Creole dishes of the region. As a former vegan of twelve years he also loves to cook vegan and vegetarian foods. A self-taught cook, Samuel enjoys making home cooked meals incorporating fresh ingredients and bright flavors for family and friends.
