On Sunday October 30th, Chef Al Lindhal, taught a kitchen knife skills class to the La Sala participants. They learned kitchen etiquette, how to Prep cook (knife use and chopping vegetables), and proper kitchen terms. This class was a cultural experience for the men since they are not accustomed to cooking complete dinner meals. They appreciate their newly found skills amd realize that they can pursue a new career by becoming professional cooks in the future.
If you are interested in volunteering and teaching the La Sala participants one of your favorite recipes or other cooking skills contact our Community Outreach Coordinator Alicia Vega at avega@mypuente.org.
