Kids Cooking Class: Celebrating the Cultures that Built El Paso 

Cozy Irish Potato Soup 

A cooking class series just for kids (ages 6–11)

Join us as we savor history through foods in El Paso! Using an historic recipe from the El Paso Cook Book published in 1898, the staff will explore the history of Irish settlers and their influence on El Paso’s development. Using potatoes, onions, and milk, this dish is warm and soothing on a chilly day. 

The cost is $10 per child. All ingredients are provided. Please call (915) 533-5147 to register in advance as space is limited.
