WHEN – Tuesday, Nov. 12th, 2024 11 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
WHY – Learn how to make fresh pasta from scratch with the most basic of tools – your hands, a bench scraper, and a rolling pin. We will discuss different whole grains, and working in teams of 2, make 2 different doughs utilizing 2 different grains, both accompanied with their own sauces. We will discuss why one is better for shorter shapes of pasta, like orecchiette, cavatelli, etc. and why the other is better for longer noodles, like pappardelle, tagliatelle, etc. And we will make a variety of both. You are welcome to participate in the actual cooking of the pasta as much or as little as you like. Looking for a full hands-on experience, hop in and help Lauren do some cooking. Looking to just sit back, observe, chat, and enjoy, that’s great too. As well as enjoying the 2 different types of pasta and the accompaniments, you will be served a seasonal appetizer. A sweet treat will be provided as a take-home snack that you can enjoy on the car ride home if you’ve got space, or save it for dessert later in the day. Non-alcoholic beverages will be available for consumption. If you’d like to enjoy something a little bit more celebratory, you are more than welcome to bring it with you. The recipe booklet contains all the recipes people consume during the class – the doughs, the appetizer and the sauces. This workshop is part a hands-on cooking class, and part lunch out on the town. You will not go home hungry!
COST - $110 + HST or $124.30 per participant and is based on 8 participants. Non-refundable however a wait list will be created and the possibility exists for a second workshop date. Cut off for registering is Oct. 18th.
