Nothing beats fresh, handmade ravioli!
Join Chef Rachel for a hands-on cooking adventure designed especially for families! Ideal for kids ages 9 and up, you’ll learn to make ravioli completely from scratch. From rolling out fresh pasta dough to preparing a creamy ricotta-parmesan filling, Chef Rachel will guide you step-by-step in creating this Italian classic. You’ll also master simple folding techniques and finish your pasta with a homemade marinara sauce simmered with roasted tomatoes, garlic, and fresh basil.
Make Your Own Ravioli:
Each guest will roll, fill, and shape their own batch of ravioli to enjoy during class. Kids and adults alike will love getting creative with the dough and learning pasta-making skills they can bring home to their own kitchens! Whether you’re planning a unique family outing, a fun date night, or just a delicious way to spend time together, this class blends hands-on learning with lively conversation and plenty of tasting. All tools and ingredients are provided!
