Come hungry and leave knowing exactly how to make a proper comfort-food feast from scratch. In a laid-back Philadelphia bar setting, you’ll begin by preparing fresh handmade pasta with 00 flour, eggs, salt and semolina, learning the basics of mixing, kneading, rolling and shaping dough without the intimidation factor. Then you’ll combine beef, pork, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, eggs, garlic, parsley, Italian herbs, milk and olive oil to shape juicy meatballs before cooking up a slow-simmered Sunday gravy with tomatoes, onion, garlic, red wine, oregano, basil and olive oil. Chef William brings more than 25 years in professional kitchens and formal culinary training, making each step practical, relaxed and easy to follow.
