Full description

The origins of the word "carbonara" are as intriguing as the dish itself, with some even linking it to the mysterious Carbonari, a secret society from 19th-century Italy. Today, it's universally loved across Italy, and this class will be able to share the magic of making it with you!

Learn how to make perfect linguini from scratch using top-notch semolina flour. While your dough takes a little nap, our cheerful Chef Instructor will show you how to concoct a classic Carbonara sauce from the very beginning. You’ll get hands-on, helping to chop and prepare all the ingredients that make this dish a delightful mix of fresh pasta, crispy bacon, and creamy cheese—what more could anyone ask for?

You’ll have the choice to roll out your pasta dough the traditional way with a rolling pin or with the ease of a modern pasta machine. Once your fresh linguini is perfectly shaped and cooked to al dente perfection, the real treat begins—sitting down to enjoy a beautiful plate of pasta that you made yourself. It’s going to be delicious and fun!
