Experience the authentic essence and true spirit of traditional Italian cuisine during this engaging hands-on cooking class, where you will prepare a thoughtful selection of regional dishes using fresh, quality ingredients and time-honored traditional cooking techniques passed down through generations.
Begin your culinary journey by preparing an elegant Tuscan-style bruschetta featuring beautiful heirloom cherry tomatoes drizzled generously with aged balsamic vinegar for depth of flavor. Next, you will roll and carefully bake a rustic Roman-inspired flatbread, topped with a creamy white sauce base, aromatic basil pesto, and your choice of delicious toppings. Complement your meal with a crisp and refreshing arugula salad dressed in a bright preserved lemon vinaigrette. To complete your Italian feast, you will enjoy warm and tender mini olive oil cakes infused with the bright zest of fresh lemon.
