Begin by making fresh pasta from scratch, using spinach to create the classic green sheets that are a signature of the traditional recipe. Learn how to knead the dough, roll it out thinly, and cut it into perfect layers for the dish.
Next, prepare a creamy béchamel sauce from scratch before layering everything together with a rich Bolognese ragù that has been slow-cooked in advance. Layer by layer, prepare your authentic lasagna, ready for the oven.
With the lasagna in the oven, make one or two flavors of homemade gelato using seasonal ingredients and easy-to-learn techniques. While everything comes together, enjoy a traditional aperitivo with local wine, mortadella, and regional ham.
Finally, gather around the table to enjoy your handmade lasagna and gelato—a true Bolognese meal, prepared and shared just like the locals do. At the end of the class, receive a cookbook including the recipes of everything you’ve prepared, plus a few extra Italian classics to try at home.
