1.5hrs | 10 - 30 Guests | $35 per person
If you've never made homemade pasta before, then mastering Pici is the perfect place to start. Pici are essentially fat, hand-rolled spaghetti, with its irregular shape making it all the more rustic and authentic and therefore perfect for beginners! The name originates from Tuscany and is generally paired with a very simple, flavourful sauce, such as the famous Cacio e Pepe that you'll also be learning how to master.
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
In this fun and hands-on online class, our experienced Italian Chef will take you through a detailed demonstration before you're guided step-by-step in making this Italian classic. You will learn how to make pasta dough from scratch, form it into the traditional pici shape, and pair with a classic cacio e pepe sauce. By the end of this class, you will have gained the confidence to throw out those packet pastas and sauces and try mastering your own at home, while also learning where to source the freshest seasonal and local ingredients. Our pasta making classes are also wonderful, stress-free ways to have a laugh with your loved ones. From birthday parties to hens party ideas, you and your favourite people can get cooking with one another, all from the comfort of your own kitchens.
