Cook up 3 of Italy's most delicious winter dishes
About this Event

Baby it’s cold outside. Let's warm up with a Northern Italian après ski class! Together we’ll learn some of Italy’s most delicious winter dishes, including:

  • Casunzei, a beet and ricotta ravioli with poppy seed butter from Cortina, the famous ski resort town in the Dolomites.
  • Polenta Concia con Salsa di Fungi, an enriched corn porridge finished with lots of cheese and topped with sautéed mushrooms, typical of the Alpine regions of Valle d'Aosta and Piedmont
  • Frico Croccante, essentially Parmesan crisps, of the Friuli Venezia-Giulia region– the perfect snack while we cook together.

In the spirit of the Italian gastronomical ethos of comida nostrana (local food), we will utilize beautiful ingredients from our neighboring farms and producers in and around the Hudson Valley. Even in the dead of winter, there are still ways to incorporate provisions of our land.

This hands-on class (plus lunch) is limited to ten people.
