Roll up your sleeves and get ready to make one of Italy’s most charming pastas from scratch --orecchiette! In this lively pasta making class in NYC, you’ll discover how to make orecchiette by hand, the old-school Puglian way. Chef Tommaso will show you how to shape those adorable “little ears” of dough and mix up a bright, aromatic pesto recipe the traditional way -- using mortars and pestles. It’s a hands-on, heart-filling experience that feels straight out of Nonna’s kitchen.
Perfect for date night, a fun outing with friends, or anyone looking for new things to do in NYC, this class is equal parts relaxing and energizing. You don’t need any prior cooking experience -- just a love for good food and a dash of curiosity. Everything you’ll need is provided, and the ingredients are simple enough to recreate at home so you can whip up the best pasta in NYC… right in your own kitchen!
You’ll work side-by-side with your group, kneading, shaping, and laughing your way through each step before enjoying your delicious creation. Arrive a little early to settle in, grab a drink from the bar, and get ready to fall in love with the joy of homemade pasta. 21+ only!
