About the experience
Dive into the world of pasta with Black Gold Experiences’ Pasta Making Class. While the origins of pasta remain a subject of debate among historians, one thing is certain: Italy has elevated pasta to an art form.
While some historians believe pasta originated in Italy, most are convinced Marco Polo actually brought it back from his epic voyage to China.
The Italian eats 27kg of pasta a year, and that there are over 600 pasta shapes in existence worldwide.
In this immersive lesson, you will uncover the secrets and history of pasta making, learning the tricks of the trade that have been passed down through generations. The craft of creating this delectable staple is as much a journey through time as it is a culinary experience.
Guided by expert hands, you’ll roll up your sleeves and dive into the pasta-making process. You’ll create homemade fresh ravioli, the delicate folds of tortellini, and the silky strands of tagliatelle. Each step offers a glimpse into the traditional techniques and the love that goes into perfecting these pasta varieties.
After your hands-on lesson, it’s time to savour the fruits of your labor. Sit down to a delightful dinner, where you’ll relish the pasta you’ve prepared, paired with a medley of sauces and wines sourced from the owners family’s vineyards. This is not just a meal; it’s a celebration of Italian tradition and the joys of homemade pasta, which is the soul of Italy.
