Celebrate the flavors of fall with an evening of handmade pasta, seasonal ingredients, and time spent around the table. Chef will introduce you to the history of cavatelli and the many shapes and techniques that make Italian pasta traditions so unique. You’ll start by preparing your own pasta dough, then learn how to roll and shape pumpkin pasta by hand. While the dough rests, we’ll take a moment to share favorite food memories and stories from the kitchen.
The evening continues with fresh ricotta and a crisp seasonal kale salad dressed with maple and sherry vinaigrette. Once the cooking is complete, gather around the table to enjoy a chef-plated pumpkin pasta entrée with fresh ricotta, focaccia and seasonal butter, and your homemade salad. Before you leave, your handmade pasta will be frozen and packaged so you can bring it home and recreate the dish in your own kitchen.

The history of cavatelli and the variety of pasta shapes and traditions found throughout Italy.
The fundamentals of making fresh pasta dough, from mixing and kneading to resting.
How to roll and shape pumpkin pasta by hand.
Techniques for making fresh ricotta at home.
