- Gorriti 5641 - There is one thing and one thing only the Argentineans are worldwide renown. Spoiler alert: it’s not Messi. It’s the Argentinean Barbecue, better known as ASADO.
In this class we will be teaching our guests the art of the Argentinian ASADO, in all it’s aspects..
Asado has been a tradition and pride of Argentina since this country was born and now, more than ever represents us worldwide.
We will explain to our guests the different cuts of meat, how to prepare them, and cook them on the Argentinian charcoal grill also known as “parrilla”. The proper selection of wood, the right temperature of the grill, and even the proper distance between the meat and coals play an important role in the final result.
All this will take place while we share some cheese, charcuterie, and a classic Argentinian aperitif, the fernet. Brought to Argentina by the first Italian emigrants Fernet has been a staple every since.
Once the different parts of the Asado are ready and we finished preparing the best sauces to pair them with, “criolla” and “chimichurri”, we will proceed to serve and enjoy each cut accordingly to the traditional order, always paired with typical Argentinian red wines.
