Join us for a hands-on Italian cooking experience, where you'll learn simple, repeatable techniques for creating restaurant-quality food at home.
Together, we'll prepare tender ricotta gnocchi tossed in a savory sauce of spinach, fresh basil, toasted pine nuts, and pancetta, followed by a creamy, classic tiramisu for dessert. The gnocchi recipe is easily adapted for vegetarians by simply omitting the pancetta.
Along the way, you'll learn practical techniques for making homemade ricotta gnocchi, building layers of flavor, and timing and sequencing multiple dishes so everything comes together at the right time.
10:00 am — Guided Grocery Shopping (optional)
Meet at Trader Joe's in Charlottesville, where you'll learn how to select quality ingredients and make smart grocery choices as we purchase the ingredients for everyone to share.
11:00 am — Hands-On Cooking Class
We'll head to The Sage Forest barn in Earlysville, VA, where you'll prepare the meal alongside your fellow cooks and put your new skills into practice.
$125 per workstation for up to two cooks
Ingredients are purchased separately and typically cost approximately $35 per workstation.
A dedicated workstation for two makes this experience perfect for couples, friends, or family members who want to cook together.
Location: The Sage Forest Barn, 5302 Tanager Woods Drive, Earlysville, VA
