Sunday in Peru
First off we went to our homestay. Then after we settled in, we went to San Pedro Market to get ingredients for our cooking class. In the market, we drank papaya juice very sweet but also very good. While the chef, Yuni, bought fruit for dessert we waited around the market. After getting vegetables and fruits we bought meat and saw whole chicken with feet and guinea pig. Guinea pig is a special occasion treat hat Peruvians eat sometimes during holidays. Then we walked to Maximo nivel to cook and walked by the parade that was happening in town for the upcoming winter festival. After cooking we had free time and walked around town and shopped and looked at the local culture.
The recipes for the dishes we made:
