Mise en Place

(Designed to Feed 4)

Transport yourself to the heart of Italy with this hands-on cooking experience, where bold flavors and time-honored techniques come together in a beautifully crafted three-course meal. Paired with expertly selected House of Smith wines, this class is designed to bring people together through the joy of cooking and sharing a delicious meal.

Begin with a vibrant Italian greens salad, featuring pickled red onion, dried cherries, feta, and crisp herb croutons, all tied together with a honey lemon vinaigrette. Candied pancetta adds a perfect balance of sweet and savory crunch.

For the main course, learn the art of a rich, slow-simmered Bolognese sauce, enhanced with sweet Italian sausage and finished with fresh torn burrata. Served over fresh, ready-to-use pasta, this dish is a comforting classic that highlights the beauty of simple, high-quality ingredients.

End on a sweet note with a decadent chocolate hazelnut mousse cake, a perfect balance of creamy, nutty, and chocolatey indulgence.

Whether you’re perfecting your pasta skills or simply enjoying the process of cooking together, this class is all about creating and connecting over incredible food.
