Florence Pasta Making Class With Gelato

Food & WineOff the Beaten Path
Learn the art of crafting authentic Italian dishes through a hands-on cooking class in Florence. Master fresh pasta-making, sauces, gelato, and then enjoy your creations together with fellow guests. 
Indulge in an authentic Italian culinary experience by mastering the art of crafting classic dishes yourself! Embrace the tradition of Italian grandmothers: begin with simple genuine ingredients and let the magic unfold in your hands.

Immerse yourself in a hands-on pasta-making workshop in Florence to elevate your skills. Guided by a seasoned chef, you'll unravel the secrets behind crafting fresh, handmade pasta. Over three hours, you'll master pasta dough manipulation, refine exquisite pasta seasonings, and witness a live demonstration on creating perfect Italian gelato.

Begin by mastering two quintessential Italian first courses using fresh, handmade pasta. Whether it's the iconic tagliatelle, spaghetti alla chitarra, classic ravioli, or the lesser-known but equally delightful gnudi, you'll learn to handle and cut pasta dough with finesse. Then, delve into crafting classic Italian sauces like carbonara, pesto, or the irresistibly inviting pummarola sauce to complement your pasta.

What's a meal without dessert? Discover the essence of authentic Italian gelato—from the creamy top to the crispy cone—through a captivating live demonstration by a local chef. Learn the art of blending gelato flavors and uncover the heating and freezing techniques that yield the finest artisanal gelatos.

Finally, the most gratifying part awaits: tasting your creations! Revel in the sublime flavors of the dishes you've masterfully prepared. It's not just about the renowned deliciousness of Italian cuisine; it's about savoring the fruits of your labor—a reward that elevates the dining experience. Accompany your meal with fine wines or opt for soft drinks for younger guests. 

Upon completion, receive a digital recipe booklet and a Graduation Certificate, empowering you to replicate these culinary marvels for friends and family, transforming into a true Italian chef in your own kitchen!
