Experience Details

Gnocchi sounds like the kind of thing only Italian grandmothers can pull off. Your local chef is about to prove that wrong, and make it really fun in the process. In this laid-back, beginner-friendly class, you will go from a pile of potatoes and flour to a plate of pillowy homemade gnocchi tossed in a rich brown butter sauce with crispy sage, fresh asparagus and a bright hit of lemon. Along the way you will pick up knife skills, dough technique and the deeply satisfying knowledge of exactly how brown butter is supposed to smell before you pull it off the heat. Come as a complete beginner. Leave as someone who genuinely makes gnocchi from scratch now.

What You’ll Experience

Warning: after this class, store-bought gnocchi will never feel the same again. Your local chef will walk you through making pillowy, homemade gnocchi from scratch and pairing it with a brown butter and crispy sage sauce so good it deserves its own round of applause. You will start by building your dough from potatoes, eggs, flour and olive oil, then roll, shape and cook it until it is perfectly light and tender. While that happens, you will learn how to coax a truly nutty brown butter, get your sage crispy and finish everything off with fresh asparagus tips and a squeeze of lemon that ties the whole dish together beautifully. The setting is casual, your local chef makes every step feel totally doable and the only pressure in the room is deciding whether to go back for seconds. No experience needed. Just show up with an appetite.
