The Flour & The Fold
Hands-on Flour Rolling
We start with the fundamental ritual of hand-rolling flour and water. You will learn the meditative art of kneading, feeling the gluten develop until the dough becomes a silky canvas that holds the warmth of your hands. This tactile connection is the secret to authentic regional Italian texture, as taught in the family kitchens of Naples.
Architectural Shaping
The shaping phase is where culture truly meets the table. From the precise thumb-flick for orecchiette to the intricate pleats of stuffed treasures like culurgiones, I teach the regional techniques that define Italian craft. You will discover how specific shapes are designed to capture sauce and celebrate the unique harvest of every season.
Opening Minds towards Incredible Tastes and Experiences.
Research (and the time-tested Italian lifestyle!) shows that formative childhood and teenage years shape a person's life-long outlook towards being more open-minded. This is not only in regard to food choices, but towards rich cultural and personal experiences generally. Foster a more resilient and collaborative personality by sparking the love of cooking.
