Ravioli Workshop *In-Person*
March 12, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Italy boasts delicious ravioli from all regions. In this class, we’ll make our pasta dough from scratch and then turn the dough into a sheet so that we can shape different styles of ravioli dumplings including large, square, half-moon ravioli filled with ricotta spinach, pumpkin, and wild mushrooms. We’ll finish with different sauces including vodka sauce, parmesan cream sauce, and roasted pepper pesto
