Cooking Class: From-Scratch Pasta Feast
Learn how to make an authentic Italian pasta feast from scratch in this cooking class with Chef Sophia.
Start with a panzanella salad, a classic Tuscan starter made with pieces of baguette, tomatoes and aromatic basil and shallots. Master making pasta dough from scratch and the techniques for rolling and shaping it into a variety of pastas. As the pasta boils, prepare three classic sauces to pair with it. Whip up a creamy béchamel, simmer a fresh tomato sauce and prepare a simple, earthy pesto. Plus, use the tomato and béchamel sauces to make two derivatives, an aurora and an arrabbiata sauce. A decadent lemon raspberry olive cake topped with a honey mascarpone whip ends the meal on a sweet note. Book your spot today!
