Vegetarian and Beef Empanadas

Sign-up!

Empanadas are a delicious pastry common in South America, similar to a savory turnover in the United States. They can be filled with endless variations, such as beef, chicken, cheese, corn, sweet potato – and even jam! Another variation is that they can be fried or cooked in the oven. In this class, we will make two kinds of empanadas, vegetarian and beef, with homemade empanada dough made by Constancia Gomez. Constancia hails from Bueons Aires, Argentina, and teaches Spanish language, music, and Latin dance. (She has taught students ages 5-90 years old to make empanadas!) In her spare time, she cares for her flock of 45 goats.
