Pasta Fresca Gnocchi and Ravioli a Napoli

About this tour

Learn to shape gnocchi and caprese ravioli from scratch at Naples' premier cooking school for home cooks. In this two-and-a-half-hour hands-on session, you'll work alongside a chef at your own station to master two pillars of Neapolitan cuisine. You'll prepare gnocchi alla sorrentina and tomato-dressed ravioli with fresh mozzarella and basil, then sit down to eat what you've made. Leave with written recipes so you can recreate these dishes at home.

Highlights

• Roll and shape gnocchi and ravioli at dedicated workstation
• Cook and taste both dishes with fresh tomato sauce
• Work directly with a Neapolitan chef throughout
• Receive printed recipes to take home
• Dinner included after the cooking lesson
• Top-ranked school, focused on amateur food enthusiasts

What to expect

You'll arrive at Toffini Academy and be assigned a station equipped with all necessary tools and ingredients. The chef will walk you through making gnocchi first—mixing potato dough, shaping each piece—then move on to ravioli, showing you how to fill and seal them. Expect to work steadily for about two hours, with hands in dough most of the time. Once both pastas are prepared, you'll cook them together and eat family-style. The session finishes with recipes in hand, no theory-heavy lectures, just practical technique.
