In this fun and hands-on class, you will learn how to make two flavors of potato gnocchi: lemon-pepper & spinach herb. Our chef instructor will then teach you how to prepare a ragout to serve over your finished gnocchi. These flavors are sure to transport you straight to the hills of Northern Italy!
No experience necessary! Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive. The only requirement is a fun attitude and a love of good food. We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen.
Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in and get settled, wearing your mask.
