Roman Pasta-Making Class
A hands-on class making fresh pasta and a classic Roman sauce.
The call
Worth it if you are watching the budget and you only have one day.
Why
- 01
A fun, social few hours making fresh egg pasta by hand — usually tonnarelli or fettuccine — then turning it into a Roman classic like carbonara or cacio e pepe (the trick is the technique: emulsifying pecorino and pasta water without scrambling the egg or seizing the cheese) and eating it with wine.
Our read - 02
The case for doing it over just eating out is that Rome's signature pastas are about method as much as ingredients, so learning the hand will change how you cook them at home.
