Fresh Pasta Foundations — Samford
Fresh pasta is simple — but simple does not mean easy to understand from a recipe alone.
In this warm, hands-on class, Andrea will guide you through the foundations of handmade pasta using techniques inspired by the way he learned in Italy, including recipes and methods passed down from his nonna’s kitchen.
You’ll learn how pasta dough should feel, how to understand ratios and resting time, how to shape different styles by hand, and why cooking pasta properly is one of the simplest things people often get wrong.
This class is designed for beginners, home cooks and food lovers who want to stop guessing and start understanding fresh pasta from the beginning.
-
THREE DOUGH FOUNDATIONS
Learn how to make at least three different pasta doughs, understand ratios, resting time, texture and how the dough should feel under your hands.
-
SIX OR MORE PASTA SHAPES
Discover a variety of pasta shapes and understand how small movements, pressure and technique change the final result.
-
COOKING PASTA PROPERLY
Learn why cooking pasta is simple, but often done wrong — from water and salt to timing, texture and finishing pasta with sauce.
