About This Activity
Instructor Jamien Reynolds—avid home cook, caterer, and local food advocate—shares her love of Italian culture and her passion for gathering friends and family around a beautiful meal in this simple, rustic Italian cooking class. The focus will be on using beautiful ingredients to create elegant and delicious dishes the whole family will love. We will start by creating a basic marinara sauce that can be adapted to serve in many different dishes. We will go on to make some simple, no-knead rustic Italian rolls, and then combine everyday ingredients into a gorgeous meal to delight the senses. Along the way, Jamien will share her love of the Italian language and lots of food history that will help inform how we use the different ingredients available to us. At the end of the class, we will all come around the table to share a lovely meal together. Registration fee includes all ingredients.
