Get ready to learn—presto! This speedy class is a crash course in our Italian classics. Learn from our Scuola Chef in this bite-sized class
About this Event

About this Class: It’s time to get your hands messy! In our hands-on format, our Scuola Chef will prepare the signature dish for you to taste in class. You’ll then dive right in to making the recipe yourself from scratch. Take your culinary creation with you at the end of class and enjoy your own hard work at home!

About this Dish: This bright green and flavorful sauce is originally from Genoa, Italy. Made from only basil, pine nuts, olive oil, and cheese, Pesto alla Genovese gets its name from the word pestare, meaning to pound or crush, as the traditional method uses a mortar and pestle to mix the sauce.

In this Class You Will:

  • Learn about the traditions and culture of Pesto Genovese.
  • Observe as our Scuola Chef teaches the group how to make Pesto Genovese.
  • Make your own Pesto Genovese from scratch by hand.
  • Enjoy a menu of freshly made pasta with Pesto Genovese and a glass of Prosecco
