Cajun Cooking Class for Teens: Chicken & Sausage Gumbo

• Ages:
  Teen

Laissez les bons temps rouler! In other words, let the good times roll and join me for this weekly cooking class where students will learn how to prepare and cook Louisiana’s famous dish Cajun Chicken & Sausage Gumbo! Students will learn the process for preparing the “Holy Trinity,” making a roux from scratch, and bringing to life one of the most flavorful, savor-full dishes from the heart of the bayou!

This class will be a demonstration and discussion class, where students learn the origins of each dish and follow along as the teacher leads them through each step of the recipe. To ensure each learner is able to follow along, each step of the recipe will be presented throughout the class, making it easier for all learning types. The class will have students completing the recipe in time to taste and discuss, while the actual recipe will need additional cooking time to let the ingredients simmer together before enjoying the meal. Not only will students learn about this traditional recipe from Louisiana, but they will also build confidence in their own cooking skills.

The ingredients for the class will be posted on the Sunday prior to the class at 8:00 AM Central Time. If by any chance you do not see the ingredients, please message me. Sometimes posts are missing depending on when students enroll in the class.

If a recipe contains an ingredient that is an allergy, you are more than welcome to substitute using the suggestions provided on the recipe cards. Since some ingredients are regionally accessible, please look to the suggested alternatives for items that will work.
