THE EXPERIENCE
The Pupusa Workshop
Learn the art of the pupusa — El Salvador's most beloved dish.
Pupusas are more than food. They are a cultural touchstone — handmade, shared, and deeply personal. In this hands-on workshop, participants learn to make pupusas from scratch: mixing and shaping the masa, preparing traditional fillings, and cooking on the comal. Every session is guided by Ana and grounded in the Salvadoran tradition she grew up with.

Pupusa Workshop Experience
Learn the techniques behind making the perfect pupusa in this hands-on culinary experience celebrating one of El Salvador’s most beloved traditions.
Learn by hand
The experience begins with a one-hour technique class led by our team. We’ll guide you step by step through working with fresh masa, adding the right amount of filling, sealing your pupusa, and mastering the hand-shaping techniques that create the perfect pupusa.
No experience is necessary. We provide all ingredients, equipment, and instruction. During the class, each guest will make three pupusas of their own.
Gather around the table
Once the hands-on class is complete, our team takes over and cooks the pupusas you created. While they’re on the comal, guests sit down and enjoy a meal prepared by our team featuring:
- Pupusas
- Salvadoran empanadas
- Sweet plantains
- Elote street corn salad
- Tamarindo and horchata
The three pupusas you made during the workshop are then carefully packed to go, so you can take your creations home and enjoy them later.
