About this Event
Carbonara & Pasta Skills
Carbonara & Pasta Skills is a lively, technique-focused demo class where you won’t cook—but you will eat everything we make. You’ll be welcomed with a complimentary charcuterie plate and a drink, then we dive straight into a night of technique and storytelling. This class is built around one idea: a single technique, elevated five delicious times. We start simple and build toward mastery, tasting as we go.
1. Aglio e Olio: We begin with the foundation - The "mantecare" technique: creating a silky, emulsified sauce using nothing but garlic, oil, and “liquid gold.”
2. Pasta alla Gricia: Building on our emulsification skill with traditional ingredients. Same technique—bigger flavor.
3. Carbonara Using the Gricia base, we introduce eggs. Timing, temperature, and technique come together to make the real thing: no cream, no shortcuts.
4. Pasta alla Zozzona Carbonara on the wild side. We change how the eggs are used and let things get a little messy (in the best way). Bold, rich, and unforgettable.
5. Pasta Assassina To finish, we break all the rules. A fiery, crispy, caramelized show-stopper cooked like no other pasta—a magical “pizza course” to end the night. This is a fully guided demo experience: you relax, watch, learn, and eat your way through foundational Roman pasta technique.
