Think gnocchi is too complicated to make at home? Think again. In this interactive class with Chef Maggie, you’ll master the Roman-born pasta that’s low-cost, filling and endlessly satisfying. Start with potatoes, flour and a pinch of seasoning to form a soft dough, then roll and cut it into delicate dumplings. As they cook, whip up one of two classic sauces: a nutty basil pesto with Parmesan or a rustic marinara with tomato, onions and peppers. Chef Maggie makes the process approachable and fun, so you’ll leave with the confidence to add homemade gnocchi to your weekly dinner rotation — no restaurant required.
What to Expect: - Step-by-step guidance from a talented chef who makes it make sense. - A fun, beginner-friendly class where no one judges your knife skills. - Tasting, laughing and leveling up your kitchen game. - Ideal for: a solo outing, date night, girls’ night or group fun.
You’ll learn how to transform just two humble ingredients — potatoes and flour — into pillowy dumplings that rival any restaurant version. Chef Maggie will guide you step by step through mixing, kneading and shaping gnocchi until it’s ready to boil. Then, choose your flavor adventure: toss your fresh gnocchi in a vibrant basil pesto with garlic and Parmesan or simmer it in a comforting marinara made with tomato, pepper and onions. Perfect for beginners or home cooks wanting to expand their skills, this class proves gnocchi is simple, filling and delicious — especially when you make it yourself.
