ISN Cooking Club

Last thursday I went to the ISN Cooking Club. It was a Spring Dinner, so the receipes was going to be spring ones.The menu consisted on chicken wih sprin onions and yoghurt, different kind of salads, pasta... For see the receipes click on this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IOn6YZpB2FLsaX6QClmCmz10ja0gm8chE3n-pVL9E7U/edit

The dynamic was the following. There were all the ingredients as well as some receipes printed. People made groups, chose a receipe and started following the steps described. This way, all the dishes were prepared at the same time so no one were idle nor anyone had to wait for eat. However, It was a social event, so while we were cooking/chopping... we were also talking with each other and knowing new people. Besides, sometime there were waiting times (while using the oven or if you needed something that was being used by another person) so they were great moments to chat.

We were 30 of us. That's a lot of people, reason why the kitchens was hectic. It is a small room with two ovens and three cookers, but it was needed for more than eight people almost at the same time. The dinner took place at the Plexus. Fortunely, despite the kitchen isn't very big, the place were the dinner was served was very spacious.

The pasta was cooked by authentic Italians it was absolutely nice. The entire menu was actually terrific, and, on the top of that, the dessert (one of the two dessert) was prepared by me. Guess what dessert was:

Torrijas!!

For those who don't know to it is I'm going to explain you. Torrijas are a typical Easter food in Spain. They consist of bread moist in milk+cinnamon+condensed milk, then dipped in beaten eggs and fried. Basically, they're sweet food (delicious food being exact). Unfortunely, I didn't cooked it very well but all of the attendants enjoy them, which is the important issue.

If you enjoy cooking, learning new receipes and meeting new people while enjoying a great meal, then you must attend to this fantastic club.

Bon appetit!
