About this Event

About this Class: It’s time to get your hands messy! In our hands-on format, you’ll be diving right in and making our dish with ingredients prepared by our Eataly kitchens. Our Scuola Chef will prepare a curated antipasto for you to taste in the class. You then get to take your shapes home and enjoy a demo dish prepared by our Scuola Chef.

About this Dish: Gnocchi are the traditional Italian form of dumplings. While gnocchi often means a potato-based dough, our recipe uses ricotta, making the gnocchi extra tender. We’ll then toss the gnocchi in a delicious pesto sauce. In this class, you’ll make your own gnocchi dough from scratch.

In this Demonstration-Style Class You Will:

  • Learn about the traditions and culture of gnocchi
  • Observe as our Scuola Chef teaches the group how to make gnocchi and pesto
  • Make your own gnocchi dough from scratch
  • Enjoy a menu featuring an antipasto and wine pairing, as well a chef-prepared Gnocchi al Pesto
  • Take home the menu and/or recipe(s) from the class
