Cocina Planetaria - Sessions
“Cocinar hoy como si todo fuese Nuevo Bajo el Sol”
Earth cuisines all over the world guard the clues that can help us renew our bonds to Nature. Cocina Planetaria is both, an intuitive approach aiming at connection with the energies of our closest environments, and a search into the wisdom of the feeding traditions of the world.
Cooking Workshops
It is said that there´s nothing new under the sun; we acknowledge this fact by bringing ancient traditions from all over the world alive. Just by recreating them with our own -Andean- flavors and by establishing a real connection with some of our food sources through gardening, supporting local producers or sometimes even foraging, we believe the simplest act of feeding ourselves becomes utterly novel, such as a miracle would be, or a first time discovery. Hence our motto: To cook today as if everything were new under the Sun.
