About this Event

Join us for a pasta making class iat Il Laboratorio - The Cooking Lab by Melina's Fresh Pasta

Come learn how to make pasta like a tiny Italian Nonna (or Nonno) from Carmella - the owner of Melina's Fresh Pasta. All classes are hands-on and we eat what we make!

Learn some traditional pasta and sauces of Naples, Italy.
We will begin with making a fresh egg pasta dough.

Next, you will learn how to roll the dough out into thin sheets to cut it into Linguine & Malfadine and shape it into Paccheri - a tube shaped pasta.

Carmella with demonstrate how to make 3 traditional sauces from Naples (Napoli) Italy:

Puttanesca Sauce - A mildly spicy sauce made with tomaotoes, capers and olives

Alla Nerano - From the Amalfi Coast near Naples & made famous by Stanley Tucci - a creamy fried zucchini sauce

Allo Scarpariello - A fresh cherry tomato sauce with pecorino romano cheese

We will cook up the pasta together for a tasting at the end of the class. Note: This is typically enough pasta for a light to medium sized meal.

Classes are held at IL LABORATORIO - our new pasta making kitchen located at 3101 Guess Rd. (NOT the pasta shop).

All participants receive a Melina’s Fresh Pasta Recipe Book via email after the class with the recipes from the class.
