About this Event

Welcome to our Pasta Making Class - Southern Italian Pastas and Sauces

Owner of Melina's Fresh Pasta & Il Laboratorio, Carmella, and her family are from Calabria - right on the toe of the Italian boot. In this class Carmella will teach you the hand rolled pasta making traditions of Southern Italy. This is Carmella's favorite class!

Made with flour and water and then shaped by hand, these chewy pastas pair well with any sauce. During the class we will make the dough, shapes and sauces from 4 Southern Italian regions.

Calabria – Fusilli with Aglio, Olio, Pepperoncini

Campania – Cavatelli with pomodoro (tomato) sauce

Abruzzo - Anellini alla Pecorara (vegetable sauce)

We eat what we make! 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 Class Recipe Book via email with the recipes from the class.

Please read FAQs below this description before calling the pasta shop with questions.
