Handmade Pasta Class: Authentic Italian Pasta Al Mattarello (Rolling Pin) Experience
Making fresh handmade pasta is one of the oldest traditions of our region, passed from mother to daughter through patient gestures and lots of love.
In this class, we guide you through the authentic techniques of “pasta fatta a mano – hands-on pasta”, just as we learned in our family kitchen, and later refined through years of hands-on experience in a fresh-pasta laboratory in Bologna.
Step by step, we cook, taste, and enjoy everything together, just like in our family kitchen here in the Food Valley.
What We’ll Make Together
Together, the pasta dough is prepared, rolled with the traditional mattarello, and shaped into Emilia’s classic pasta styles, showing how flour, fresh eggs, and skilled hands combine to create something exceptional, guided by Italian tradition and artisan dedication.
Let’S Cook Together! And Then… Tutti A Tavola!
We’ll discover the most delicious sauces and perfect pairings for each pasta shape.
Then we’ll sit down together and enjoy everything we’ve prepared, such as:
Tortelloni Filled With Ricotta, Served In Butter, Sage, And Parmigiano
Learn how to shape delicate tortelloni filled with creamy ricotta, guided by age-old traditions.
Tagliatelle
Served With Ragù
Learn how to roll and cut tagliatelle and taste them with our timeless homemade ragù.
Tortellini
