Freshly back from his own trek through Portugal, our Head Cheese Buyer and expert monger Marc, will share his favorite finds with you!

By land or sea, Portuguese food is backed by a long list of classic dishes with Mediterranean foundations but peppered with portions of African, Brazilian, and Spice Route pizzazz. Today, Portugal has cultivated this globalized mélange into one of the continent's most exacting and dynamic cuisines.

Our head cheese buyer and expert monger, Marc, is back from his recent travels through Portugal and excited to share his latest discoveries with you!

Hugely popular everywhere, the evening will begin with individual tinned fish boards featuring a variety of flavors and textures.

Next, Marc will be cooking up his own version of cozido a Portuguesa—a stew with various vegetables such as cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and beans as a base. Depending on what is fresh and available at the time of the class, Marc will choose a protein such as lamb or smoked sausage.

Naturally, since this is Formaggio Kitchen, we'll be embedding our famous cheeses and wine pairings in this adventure. Marc has brought back some treasures from his recent travels and he is excited to share them for the first time!

We'll wrap this beautiful journey with a sweet ending, Marc's favorite Portuguese dessert.

Don't wait to sign up! This trip departs November 2nd. We hope you'll join us! Boa Viagem!
