Overview

Roll, shape, and sauce your own potato gnocchi at this hands-on cooking class in Portland, OR. Learn the classic method for making tender gnocchi from scratch, then pair it with a from-scratch marinara built on tomatoes, onion, garlic, and a splash of red wine.

🥔 Combine potatoes, flour, eggs, and salt to shape tender, scratch-made gnocchi

🫙 Build a bold marinara from tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil, and red wine

🧀 Finish with freshly grated Parmesan for a classic Italian touch

🍽️ Sit down and enjoy a full Italian meal made entirely from scratch

There's something specific that separates average gnocchi from great gnocchi, and it comes down to how the dough is handled. Work it too much and the gnocchi turn dense; too little and they fall apart. This Portland class teaches participants exactly where that line is — how to combine potato, flour, egg, and salt and work the dough just enough to get the soft, delicate pillows that gnocchi are supposed to be. The marinara that goes with it is the kind that rewards patience: tomatoes, onion, garlic, and fresh basil cooked down slowly with a pour of red wine that deepens everything. Held at a local Portland tea house, the class is two hours of genuine hands-on cooking that ends with a full sit-down meal. All ingredients and tools are provided, and beverages are available for purchase at the venue throughout.
