Claudia

Hello! I’m Claudia, a local chef passionate about ancestral cuisine. I come from Alotenango, a beautiful town nestled among volcanoes. My love for cooking began when I was seven, watching my grandmother’s patience as she cooked over a wood fire. Today, I keep her legacy alive at Utum by sharing the culinary secrets passed down through four generations of women in my family. We will cook using traditional tools, such as a volcanic grinding stone and a clay *comal* (griddle). My driving force is to pass this living culture on to my daughter and to share the richness of Maya Kaqchikel identity with the world.

Handmade Nixtamal Dough – Grind corn by hand on an ancestral volcanic stone to create authentic tortilla dough.
Hand-Slapped Corn Tortillas – Learn the traditional technique of shaping and baking tortillas by hand on a clay comal.
Artisanal Tamalitos – Prepare and wrap homemade tamalitos using fresh local leaves, such as chipilín or loroco.
Ancestral Pepián Recado – Prepare Guatemala’s iconic ceremonial stew from scratch by roasting chiles and seeds to create its rich, traditional flavor.
