What to expect
You'll arrive and begin with the basics—how to handle ingredients, knife work, and the logic behind Italian cooking ratios. Your instructor will guide you through preparing several dishes from scratch, explaining why each step matters rather than just following orders. Expect to get your hands properly involved: kneading, chopping, tasting as you go. Halfway through or after cooking, you'll sit down to eat what you've made, with wine or soft drinks on hand. It's unhurried and conversational rather than rushed.
