Hand-made strozzapreti from scratch
What you'll learn
In this class you will learn to make strozzapreti by hand and we will make together also one of the classic sauces that go perfectly well with this wonderful fresh pasta. In Italy we have plenty of fresh pasta cuts, prepared with different flour blends, with eggs and without eggs. In the south of Italy durum wheat semolina flour is traditionally used to prepare many different fresh pasta cuts like orecchiette, cavatelli, fusilli al ferretto, strozzapreti etc. It's time to put the apron on and learn to prepare one of the most famous Italian shaped fresh pasta.

Beginners, Amateurs, Experts
After taking a degree in Economics and having worked first as a financial accountant and later as a professional sworn translator, I decided that cooking had to become my job. I took a professional diploma as a Personal Chef, opened a food blog, worked for a famous Italian food magazine and for some of the greatest Italian Chefs in catering events and English cooking classes. In 2014 I founded my cooking school in Rome, so cook! In my school I give cooking classes in English on our traditional Italian cooking.
