Chef Maria-Pia will teach you the techniques to craft authentic Italian like a Sicilian grandmother would. To begin the class, you'll learn how to cook codfish in a fresh tomato sauce seasoned with oregano to make a baccalà a sfincione. Then, learn the time-honored recipe to make pasta from scratch using flour, eggs and water. Plus, learn the technique to knead and shape the dough into noodles. As the pasta boils, whip up a pistachio pesto sauce with red shrimp. Then, finish on a sweet note by making a handmade cannoli stuffed with ricotta and sprinkled with cocoa for dessert.
