About this Event
Celebrate the beauty of simplicity — the Tuscan way. In this hands-on class with food writer and chef instructor Shawnie Kelley, we explore Cucina Povera — the “peasant kitchen” — a deeply rooted philosophy that transforms humble ingredients into unforgettable dishes. This is food born from scarcity, perfected by creativity, and passed down through generations with love. Through classic recipes and time-honored techniques, you’ll learn how to cook with intention and coax incredible flavor from the most rustic ingredients. This is a class that feeds more than just your stomach — it connects you to a way of cooking and living where nothing is wasted, and everything has meaning.
On the Menu:
Ribollita – A hearty, earthy soup of slow-cooked cannellini beans, kale, vegetables, and day-old bread — simmered until deeply flavorful and rich.
Pici all’Aglione – Hand-rolled, thick Tuscan pasta dressed in a bold sauce of garlic, tomato, and olive oil — simple, satisfying, and pure.
Olive Oil Cake with Rosemary & Citrus – A rustic dessert that’s deeply moist and fragrant, made with local olive oil, orange zest, and a hint of rosemary.
