Culinary Arts Career Explorer for Boy & Girls

Only a Few Days Left To Register for This Culinary Adventure!

With only a few days left, Passion for Spices is gearing up for our Culinary Arts Explorer program. Working together with the Boy Scouts of America, the Explorer Program offers young men and women, aged 11 to 20, the opportunity to explore their passion for food and learn what it means to pursue a career in the culinary arts. 

With the guidance of local professional chefs and exciting field trips to restaurants, farms, and markets, these culinary up-and-comers will experience what it's like to source their own ingredients, work in a professional kitchen, and craft their very own recipes from scratch. 

Take a Peek at just some of the recipes we'll be learning!

  • Tacos with Masa Harina
  • Mexican Style Grilled Chicken with Pipian Verde Sauce
  • Mexican Style Roasted Chayote
  • Roasted Poblano Guacomole
  • Salsa Mexicana
