Cooking Class: Dinner From the Mediterranean

Chef James presents his unique variation on traditional gnocchi in this exciting cooking class. First, you'll create a lovely selection of antipiasti, including charcuterie with artisan cheeses, anchovies and olives, and a refreshing salad featuring market-chosen greens. Then, you'll learn to prepare Sardinian gnocchetti using semolina wheat flour instead of potato and a tomato and sausage sauce from a recipe created by Chef James himself. For dessert, enjoy a lesson in dolce la quesada topped with fresh local berries. Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Chef James is a culinary virtuoso, particularly skilled in crafting mouthwatering pasta dishes and the most delicious mushrooms you'll find in San Francisco. His ability to source fresh, local ingredients from the farmers market is truly impressive. I highly recommend experiencing his culinary magic for an unforgettable dining adventure.
