Transport your tastebuds to Italy in this immersive cooking class with Chef Landi.
Under the guidance of Chef Landi, you'll learn how to cook an authentic Italian feast from scratch. To begin the class, top crispy Italian bread with fresh mozzarella, caramelized onions and sautéed mushrooms. Finish off your savory bruschetta with a sweet and tangy balsamic vinegar reduction. Next, cook a classic pasta e fagioli with cannellini beans, mixed vegetables and elbow pasta to make a rich and earthy soup. Learn how to cook the perfect risotto with Arborio rice and white wine topped with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for creamy risotto Milanese with shrimp. A decadent Sicilian cannoli stuffed with ricotta and mascarpone cheese and a sprinkle of chocolate chips serves as a sweet dessert to end the meal.
