From Scratch Italian Pasta or Lasagna Class

Cook classic Italian comfort food in a hands-on New York City cooking class!



3 hours Location Lower East Side Class size 1 to 10 (public classes), 4 to 24   $150 - $180 ($150 for Public Class; $180 for Private Class)

Step into a warm, flour-dusted kitchen where comfort food, confidence, and a little Italian magic come together! In this Italian pasta cooking class in New York City, you’ll roll up your sleeves and cook a generous, feel-good meal that’s as welcoming as it is delicious—no pressure, no pretense, just good food and good vibes!
Depending on the date you select at checkout, you’ll learn how to cook spaghetti the right way while building a classic spaghetti and meatballs recipe from the ground up, including a rich, slow-simmered tomato sauce recipe that tastes like it’s been passed down for generations. Or you’ll dive into a from-scratch lasagna recipe, making fresh pasta sheets and layering them into a hearty meat lasagna that’s pure comfort. Along the way, you’ll round out the meal with Caesar salad (yes, dressing from scratch), garlic bread, and desserts that feel celebratory without being fussy—tiramisu and warm chocolate cake!
Everything unfolds at an easy, supportive pace, so you can relax, ask questions, and actually enjoy the process. It’s hands-on, deeply satisfying, and a delicious contender for your list of favorite things to do in NYC—especially if you’re chasing what just might be the best pasta in NYC. Most dietary restrictions can be accommodated, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free, though the lasagna portion cannot be made gluten-free. Pork and shellfish can be omitted, and meat and dairy can be kept separate. Just share your needs at checkout, and you’ll be taken care of!
Please Note: Please include any restrictions at checkout and reach out with questions—we’re here to make your culinary celebration joyful and stress-free.

Recent reviews of From Scratch Italian Pasta or Lasagna Class

  • 5/5 from Maribeth Mason, attended Apr 2026: This class was excellent! We made pasta dough for both the fettuccine and raviolis. We also cut up all the ingredients and made the sauce for both meals. The teachers were very hands on and demonstrated how to make the food, slice the ingredients, roll the dough, etc. every step of the way. I definitely learned new tricks for cooking. On top of that the meal we made was extremely delicious. I highly recommend for a fun night out with friends, family or coworkers!
