Malaysian Cuisine with Azalina | Cavallo Point | Feb 24

Azalina is one of my favorite La Cocina businesses. I highly recommend this class if you want to try something new and delicious or just want to meet and support an amazing entrepreneur. -Epicuring/Maya

In this interactive hands-on class, discover the next big food trend as Azalina shares specialties from her tribal village, Mamak, on the Malaysian coast of Penang. She grew up with her parents farming native spices in their backyard garden and learning to coax and enhance the nuances of each.

When Azalina moved to San Francisco with her husband, she began to rediscover and reinvent some of her favorite dishes. She started cooking the curries she remembered from her childhood because they were flavors that she wanted to pass on to her two children, even though they are growing up so far from where she was born. She called up her parents and had them ship her some of spices and solid palm sugar so she could keep up with her family and friends’ demand for the unique Malaysian flavors she was creating. Malaysian food is a unique combination of influences – most notably, Indian and Thai. Almost every dish uses over ten different kinds of spice and ingredients like coconut milk and chilies abound.
