Cooking Class

Last night we learned all about a Balinese home - it's specific directional layout, the house temple, and the kitchen as we cooked a traditonal Balinese meal. Wayan and Puspa were great hosts answering all our questions about the ingredients and how they are grown. Fresh tumeric, galangal, ginger, garlic, shallots, lemongrass and candle nuts along with white and black peppercorns, coriander, cloves and a dash of nutmeg all go into the basic yellow sauce or gede. The evening was a feast for our eyes as well as our taste buds!
