Strap on your apron and prepare to fall head over noodle for the most memorable pasta making class Austin has to offer! On this culinary journey through Italy's most beloved regions, you'll learn the art of homemade pasta from scratch -- starting in Liguria, the birthplace of pesto alla Genovese, where your chef instructor will show you the authentic way to make it (hint: it involves a mortar and pestle, not a food processor). Then it's off to Emilia Romagna, home of Prosciutto di Parma and Bolognese sauce, where you'll hand-craft fresh egg Tagliatelle using a traditional pasta recipe rooted in generations of Italian cooking.
If you've been Googling "how to make pasta" or hunting for fun things to do in Austin, this class checks every box -- and then some. Whether you're a seasoned home cook or someone who burns toast, this experience is designed to welcome everyone. No experience is required, and all equipment and ingredients are provided, so all you have to bring is your enthusiasm (and maybe your appetite).
This makes for one of the best date ideas in Austin or a fun outing with friends. Kids aged 14 to 17 are welcome with a parent or guardian, and guests in the same party work together, sharing ingredients and the joy of a truly hands-on homemade pasta recipe experience. Just arrive 15 minutes early to check in, and leave room for that first perfect, saucy bite!
