Past Classes

MEATBALLS & MARINARA. Grazie.

Ah....2 Italian Classics in one class. I'll share with you my recipes that I've made at home (for my 4 sons) for years. Nothing like eating soothing meatballs freshly cooked.

Puttanesca Sauce: Another Italian Classic.

And for this class we will have a guest cook: Boots Swan.

Luccio is back--our now famous Sicilian "Chef" preparing Spaghetti Carbonara

For those who loved my Sicilian born friend, Luccio—and for you who missed him—HE’S BACK. This time he’ll teach you this famous, but rarely found in America, pasta dish. 

MAKING BISCOTTI

The last time we did this class it sold out! Rumor is Jeremy may also cook up Zabaglione! So if your sweet tooth is craving to be satisfied, be here.

Making Biscotti--Back by popular demand. It sold out last time! We eat the results and we'll tell you a little Sicilian secret about how to dunk a biscotti...hint: grab your wine glass.

Wednesday, May 16, 7:00 p.m.: Guest Sicilian "Chef" Luccio, Sicilian Caponata

Our First Guest "Chef." Come and meet my Sicilian Friend, Luccio Zappoli. Born and raised in Sicily. You will love his charm and wit and he will show us how to make Sicilian Eggplant Caponata. Don't miss out.

Eggplant is a favorite Italian vegetable (vedure). Luccio will show us how to make this dish which is combined with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and other vegetables to make a delicious antipasti dish. You'll love the Caponata and Luccio!

SOOTHING POLENTA

Polenta--po...whatta. Polenta. The staple of "poor Italians" who learned how to turn life's simple abundance into all things glorious. It's simple, but needs TLC, then we'll show you some both sweet and savory additions to the basic polenta.

Wednesday, March 7--MAKING BISCOTTI 

Making Biscotti--Back by popular demand. It sold out last time! We eat the results and we'll tell you a little Sicilian secret about how to dunk a biscotti.

Wednesday, March 21--HOMEMADE BREAD & FOCACCIA

Making homemade bread. We'll make AND EAT Italian Focaccia bread. We'll make two types: the classic Rosemary (with fresh rosemary from my garden) and a Cheesy Zucchini and Red Onion variety--a meal in itself. The antipasti this time will be a nice soup to go with the fresh bread. And of course a glass of wine.
