Students in Mrs. Williams’ Spanish classes wrapped up their food unit this week by diving into the culinary traditions of various Hispanic countries. As part of the project, students researched, prepared, and shared authentic dishes, bringing the vibrant flavors of Hispanic culture to life.
Among the featured dishes were mofongo from Puerto Rico, a savory blend of mashed plantains, bacon, and pork skins; paletas de queso from Colombia, a cheesy treat reminiscent of breadsticks; and paella, Spain’s iconic rice-based specialty.
Desserts also took center stage, with indulgent tres leches cake from Costa Rica, decadent Rogel cake from Argentina, and crispy, cinnamon-dusted churros from Spain. Other countries represented included the Dominican Republic and Guatemala.
The activity provided students with a hands-on way to explore Hispanic culture while showcasing their culinary skills. A delicious way to learn!
