Soft, pillowy gnocchi you made yourself -- that's the kind of dinner story worth telling. Zafferano & Co.'s hands-on NYC cooking class is your invitation to finally crack the potato gnocchi recipe you've been too intimidated to try at home! Whether you're hunting for the best date ideas in New York City or just ready to level up your kitchen confidence, this beginner-friendly experience welcomes you exactly as you are -- no culinary background required, no judgment, just good food and good people.
From the moment you arrive, a complimentary glass of Prosecco sets the tone. Led by Certified Italian Chef Gianluca Deiana (or another qualified Italian chef from the Zafferano & Co. team), you'll learn the real technique behind how to make gnocchi the right way -- how to choose and prep your potatoes, control moisture, work the dough without overdoing it, and shape each piece before cooking and saucing them properly. It's the kind of detail-driven, hands-on pasta making class that turns a curious beginner into someone who actually knows what they're doing.
At the end, the whole group sits down together to enjoy the gnocchi you made -- warm, homemade, and genuinely earned!

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 6 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
