Sergio's Love Bites Italian Cooking Experience, December 8

Sergio's Love Bites
Passing family recipes and cooking techniques from my grandmothers to you!

Buongiorno!

The Holidays are here, and with a joyful holiday spirit I am happy to announce a new Experience for Sundary, 12/8.

RAVIOLI-MAKING WORKSHOP
and HOLIDAY GIVING

This Experience will focus on preparing a festive meal where the famous Piedmontese ravioli are the centerpiece.

My passion for cooking and my heritage of regional recipes from Piedmont, Italy, are the perfect starting point to make YOU a happy and accomplished Italian cook, too.

As important today as it was to my Nonnas (grandmothers), the priority for our events is using fresh, local ingredients in our dishes. The menu for the Dec 6th event is:

Antipasti
Insalata d'Inverno (Winter Salad with Boiled Potatoes, Carrot, Onion, and Fennel)
Involtini di Cavolo e Carne (Cabbage Leaves Rolled and Filled with Meat)

WORKSHOP

1. Preparing the traditional filling
2. Mixing the dough
3. Rolling the dough into sheets with the hand-cranked pasta machine
4. Shaping and filling the ravioli using the ravioli tablet
5. Making the traditional Christmas Ravioli Sauce
