Cooking Class: Modernized Classics From an Italian Chef
This hands-on cooking class features a tantalizing collection of Italian classics with some modern twists added, courtesy of Chef Federico.
As a child, Chef Federico drew inspiration from his grandmother’s traditional Italian home cooking. In this hands-on cooking class, he puts his own innovative spin on a collection of those classic recipes, and you get to learn them all!
Start your lesson with a mouthwatering, melty oven-baked eggplant pizzette with fresh mozzarella and authentic homemade tomato sauce. Then, learn a chef's methods for making the best creamy risotto to top with onion and kiwi — don't knock it 'til you try it! For dessert, master the art of the perfect Italian pastry with a crostate alle albicocche bursting with sweet apricot jam.

This past weekend, my husband and I took our two grandchildren (our 11-year-old granddaughter and our 13-year-old grandson) to Chef Federico's pizza-making class. We all truly enjoyed the experience. We skewered cheese and vegetables as an appetizer (so much fun; easy to make; and allowed each of us to choose what we wanted to eat); we baked thick and thin pepperoni and plain pan pizzas (which were delicious); and we learned the ins and outs of making meringue for our strawberry tiramisu dessert (which was sooo tasty)! We all learned a great deal and Chef Federico had lots of patience with the four of us as we asked many questions throughout the evening. A wonderful experience was had by all! We highly recommend taking a class with Chef Federico.
