Pasta Workshop with Chef Sylvia Becker

Semolina pasta dough makes a versatile and shelf stable pasta that is sturdy enough to create a plethora of shapes. In this Pasta Workshop, we are making a spinach semolina pasta dough from scratch. Chef Sylvia will show how the dough is made and then the hands-on shaping will begin. Learn to make cavatelli, orecchiette, malodorous and fusilli pasta and learn why these shapes exist and what sauces compliment them best.

At the end of the class we’ll enjoy a scrumptious Springtime lunch of handmade pasta with a parmesan sauce that includes fresh, local garden vegetables.

This hands-on workshop is limited to ten people and includes lunch.
