About this Event
Step into the heart of Italy with our Artful Pasta:Tuscan Sacchetti cooking class! In this hands-on experience, you'll learn to make sacchetti—delicate, purse-shaped pasta filled with rich, flavorful ingredients like cheese, herbs, and meats. Our expert chef will guide you through the process of preparing fresh pasta dough, crafting the perfect filling, and mastering the technique of shaping these little "pockets of joy." You’ll also create a delicious, traditional Tuscan sauce to complement your handmade pasta. It’s the perfect class for pasta lovers looking to bring a taste of Tuscany into their own kitchens!
Menu:
- Tuscan Sacchetti w/ Truffle Cream Sauce
- Arugula and Parmesan Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette
- Whipped Ricotta Crostini with Walnuts & Salted Honey
Suggested Wine Pairing - Bring your own wine!
Recommended White:
- Chardonnay (lightly oaked) – Rich enough for the truffle cream sauce, yet balanced for the salad and ricotta crostini.
Recommended Sparkling (optional add-on):
- Prosecco – A festive, crisp choice that pairs beautifully across the board, especially with the crostini and salad.
Recommended Red (if desired):
- Chianti Classico – A medium-bodied Tuscan red that won’t overpower the truffle sauce but still offers a touch of earthy structure.
Note: Gratuity is appreciated ! Our team is dedicated to providing you with an exceptional and memorable experience, and we truly enjoy serving you!
