Cooking Class: Make Gnocchi With Chef Justin
This fun cooking class is your excuse to finally say “I make my own gnocchi” and actually mean it!
In this fully cooking class, you’ll turn humble russet potatoes into soft, pillowy potato gnocchi completely from scratch. Learn how to develop the perfect dough, shape each piece like a pro and cook them just right so they stay light and tender. Then, simmer a slow-cooked garlic tomato basil sauce that fills the room with that classic Italian aroma. Toss everything together, plate with intention and enjoy a dish that tastes like it came straight from a cozy trattoria. Come hungry and leave confident!
