The experience
You arrive in Southeastern Sacramento and spend three hours learning to make pasta by hand, prepare fresh tomato sauce, and plate four courses the way they're done in Italy. The class starts with fritto misto (lightly fried squash, lemons, olives, mushrooms and green beans with spicy lemon aioli), then moves into a citrus and bitter greens salad with arugula, treviso, almonds, fennel and Parmesan. The main course is handmade pasta (flour, eggs and semolina) paired with a fresh tomato and Calabrian chile sauce finished with olive oil, garlic, breadcrumbs and Parmesan. You finish with tiramisu made from scratch: lady fingers, Marsala wine, mascarpone and cocoa powder.
The group stays under 8 people, so instruction is direct and you get hands-on time with each technique. A live guide in English walks you through pasta-making, sauce preparation and plating, and you eat what you make during class. Anything left over goes home with you. The venue is fully wheelchair accessible, and the class accommodates dietary needs if you mention them when you book.
Bring wine or beer if you want. This is a BYOB event, and guests drink throughout the afternoon. You'll leave with the recipes and the confidence to recreate these four dishes at home.
