Culinary Workshop and Wine Tasting

Arrive at the charming Bodegas Monje in northern Tenerife at your designated time, where a skilled chef will guide you through this unique culinary workshop. It’s time to dive into the art of cooking!

During a 90-minute session, you will uncover the secrets behind the famous spicy mojo sauce (mojo picón). The workshop will cover essential ingredients and techniques that define this iconic dish found in the Canarian archipelago. Additionally, you’ll experiment with making various mojos inspired by cilantro, parsley, and pumpkin. Ensure you take plenty of notes so you can replicate these delicious recipes at home!

Upon completing the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to taste their culinary achievements alongside plenty of papas arrugadas (wrinkled potatoes), one of the most beloved dishes in the Canary Islands. The sauces will be paired with three varieties of wine, complemented by toasted bread and a selection of local spreads like mantequilla de berros  (watercress butter), almogrote (a flavorful cheese spread with garlic and tomato), and chorizo palmero (typical Canarian chorizo).

Following the tasting, indulge in a 45-minute guided exploration of the bodegas. A knowledgeable guide will share the rich history of the Monje family, as you stroll through the expansive vineyards and visit the historic barrel cellar established in 1956. This event promises a full culinary adventure!

After an enriching two and a half hours immersed in the gastronomic delights of Tenerife, the workshop will conclude.
