About this Event
Use Parmesan on fish! Umami-up your dessert! Get creative with some wild pairings!
Ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about Parmigiano Reggiano?
Join the iconic Italian chef Gennaro Contaldo for a rule-breaking masterclass in partnership with Parmigiano Reggiano DOP at Westminster Kingsway College, as we explore how to use parmesan where it “shouldn’t” work… but absolutely does.
Gennaro will demonstrate how this extraordinary DOP cheese — aged, nuanced, deeply umami — can transform dishes far beyond the traditional, all delivered with Gennaro’s signature warmth, storytelling and infectious love of Italian cooking.
You’ll learn:
- How to balance Parmigiano Reggiano with fish
- Why umami is the secret weapon in sweet dishes
- How ageing impacts flavour and pairing potential
- Practical techniques for rule-breaking creativity
Come curious. Leave inspired. And never look at Parmesan the same way again.
