WHAT YOU’LL DO
Roll fresh pasta and fill your own ravioli in a hands-on Italian session.
Learn the craft of fresh pasta in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Jesse, whose background in handmade pasta anchors the whole session. The focus stays on technique you can genuinely recreate at home, from working the dough to filling and sealing ravioli with a clean and confident hand.
You will roll fresh egg pasta and fill it with a zesty ricotta and lemon mixture before sealing each raviolo and finishing them in a rich garlic butter. To start, you will prepare a bright tomato and basil bruschetta. To close, you will make a smooth chocolate and espresso mousse without any raw eggs. Reserve your spot in this pasta class today.
Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.
