There’s nothing so delicious as fresh pasta, and creating it yourself.
If you love fresh ravioli and tortellini but don't think you could ever replicate what you would order from a restaurant, this class will prove you wrong. Filled handmade pasta has been an Italian staple since the 1500s in the Lombardy region. You will use a pasta machine to roll it out before filling your pasta sheets with delicious fillings (veggies and cheeses).
You will make and enjoy two different popular types of pastas: ravioli and tortellini! Enjoy your pastas with a simple Basil Infused Cream Sauce, made from scratch.
No experience is required! 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. 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).
Guests in the same booking party will work together throughout the class by sharing ingredients and equipment. Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in. Drinks are NOT included in the ticket price. Drinks are NOT included in the ticket price. However, drinks will be available for purchase at the bar.
Chef Jennifer's passion is cooking authentic regional cuisine with a room full of newfound friends. Her culinary career started at a young age by peeking over the counter to watch her grandmother make the most amazing huckleberry pies in Cherokee County, Oklahoma. This love of food and culture brought her to The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY to study Culinary Arts. She moved to Houston to pursue her Bachelor’s from the Hilton School of Hotel and Restaurant Management at The University of Houston. After her formal education, she spent ten years in the industry as a manager and food service director, but she knew her heart was in sharing the love of food with others in the classroom. This will be her 12th year teaching culinary education in high school and college. She looks forward to making food memories with you all very soon.
