Italian Date Night: Hand-made Ravioli & Prosecco Tiramisu

A trip to Tuscany – without the airfare!

Guests will discover the pleasure of making fresh pasta into delicious and unique stuffed ravioli using a bounty of Tuscan style ingredients. While most of Italy is infamous for its pasta dishes, the ravioli in Tuscany truly stand out. It’s the pure, fresh and bountiful ingredients that make these raviolis an experience to remember, and this class features many of them. Made with no animal meat product this class excites vegetarian and non-vegetarian pallets to the very best.

Get the “how to” on our chef’s luxurious filling, then mix your own dough from imported flour and hand roll thin sheets to cuddle the beautiful treasure. Finally, we will create a veggie broth bursting with the flavors of shallots and fresh herbs for them to swim in topped with imported Reggiano cheese.

But wait! No meal is complete without the sweet! Little else says “Italian” like a good ladyfinger cookie. In the class you’ll learn how to make them soft and sponge-like in the center and a little crisp on the outside. Perfect!

Then chef will release his secret recipe for prosecco sparkling wine cream to smother them in and top them off with tart raspberries! Like a version of tiramisu but with wine and berries instead of coffee and cocoa!

Adoro la pasta .. adoro la tua vita!  (love the pasta… love your life!)

If bringing your own wine, chef recommends an Oregon Coast Pinot Noir, Italian Barbera, or California Chardonnay if white is preferred.

*The ticket is on per person basis* No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets in case you wish to recreate the dish on your own after the class. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).
