Cooking class experience — learning Sardinhas Assadas properly

I took a cooking class specifically to learn how to make Sardinhas Assadas correctly. The instructor explained why bacalhau salt cod is used the way it is — something I'd never understood from just eating it. The sweet and eggy in pastries result when you make it yourself is different.

Portugal developed bacalhau salt cod cookery while exploring the Atlantic and has over 365 recipes for it. We learned how a pastelaria morning coffee shapes the way this dish is eaten. The class ended with the meal and a glass of Sagres beer. I've made it three times since and each time it improves. Highly recommend the cooking class approach.
