Join Marina for the Pasta Journey signature three week course: A Pasta Journey Through Emilia-Romagna.

WEEK #1 PASTA 101

Sunday 23 May 2021, 11.00 am

The Italian way to make fresh pasta!

In this step-by-step class, you will learn to make two kinds of egg pasta typical to the Emilia-Romagna region, tagliatelle, and garganelli.

To accompany your pasta, we will cook a simple, tasty Sausage and Pea Ragu – and we will have lunch together.

Class time: 180 minutes

WEEK #2 TORTELLINI IN BROTH OR PARMIGIANO CREAM 

Sunday 30 May 2021, 11.00 am

In week two, you will learn how to make the traditional pasta of Emilia-Romagna, tortellini.

Following famous chef Massimo Bottura's recipe, we will prepare tortellini and cook them two ways: in brodo (broth) and a Parmigiano cream.

The filling of the tortellini is as important as the pasta. For this recipe, we stick to using ingredients from the Emilia-Romagna region, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Prosciutto di Parma, and fresh pork. When you combine these flavours with those in the broth, a moreish savory taste known as umami occurs.

Class time:180 minutes

WEEK #3 SPINACH & RICOTTA TORTELLONI + EGG YOLK RAVIOLO

Saturday 5 June 2021, 11 am

You will learn how to make tortelloni with one of the most decadent fillings in week four: the simple and delicious combination of slowly roasted spinach and ricotta. Also, we will make the delicate EGG YOLK ravioli using the same filling. We will serve both with a brown butter and sage sauce, which we will learn how to make together.

Class time: 180 minutes

So, what do you think? Are you ready to pack your appetite and join me for this luxury journey through Emilia-Romagna?

The Italian region of Emilia-Romagna is the ultimate foodie destination, famous for ragu, parmesan cheese, prosciutto di Parma, balsamic vinegar, AND handmade pasta!

In Emilia-Romagna's capital city of Bologna, I honed my pasta making skills; learning to master different flours and how to blend them properly to create silky smooth pasta, every time.

Emilia-Romagna is where I keep my heart, and now, I want to take you there too.

So, pack your appetite and come with me as we journey to the depths of Italian soul food!
