Acclaimed Chilean chef, Pilar Rodriguez, has defined her cooking by harnessing the unique ingredients of Chile to create dishes designed to harmonize with specific wines.  Ms. Rodriquez’ November 5^th cooking class in Washington, DC will be a lesson in wine tasting and food-and-wine pairing, featuring in-depth instruction on Chile’s wine regions as well as a live cooking demonstration. 25 students will learn to approach the preparation of food in the context of the wine it is intended to accompany.  Thus, despite being titled a ‘cooking class’, it is the wines from Chile that will be the stars of the syllabus.
