Maiz Cooking Class - Chef Angel Miguel is a charming, knowledgeable professional on the subject of corn, nixtamal and the history of corn. He is very clear about teaching how best to choose your products to make your own dishes. His class takes place outside in a spacious family compound in the foothills outside Oaxaca. I highly recommend this class.
