Pasta & Tiramisu Cooking Class Rome: Make & Eat Both

Savor your homemade Fettuccine with wine and a shot of Limoncello

A hands-on cooking class in Rome where you learn to make fettuccine pasta and tiramisu from scratch with a professional local chef, then enjoy your own creations with wine or a soft drink and limoncello or coffee. The class runs two hours and accommodates vegetarian, nut-free, alcohol-free and gluten-free requests. A live English-speaking guide leads the instruction.

The experience

The class starts with fresh ingredients and a chef who walks you through making fettuccine by hand: mixing, kneading, rolling and cutting the dough into ribbons. You'll learn the technique for three classic sauces: amatriciana, cacio e pepe, or tomato and basil. Then you move to tiramisu, layering mascarpone cream and ladyfingers soaked in coffee, building the dessert from the ground up so you understand why each step matters. The chef answers questions about Italian cooking as you work, and you get to ask about the recipes and the shortcuts people use at home.

Once both dishes are done, you sit down to eat. Your fettuccine comes plated with whichever sauce you chose during the class, and your tiramisu sits on the table in front of you. A glass of wine or a soft drink comes with the meal, and afterward you get a shot of limoncello or an espresso to finish. Water is there throughout. The whole experience runs about two hours from start to finish.

The class is wheelchair accessible, and if you have dietary needs (vegetarian, nut-free, alcohol-free) the kitchen can work with that. Gluten-free pasta is available on request, though the class uses wheat flour during preparation, so cross-contamination is a possibility if you have celiac disease. Children and infants are welcome. Specialized infant seats are available if you need one.
