Italians are the masters of many extraordinary soups, and we will make some of their best varieties. Learn to prepare Italian wedding soup; sausage, kale, and gnocchi soup; pasta fagioli in the Bolognese style; and the classic minestrone. Enjoy each delicious dish in class, and go home with the recipes so you can recreate these famous soups for years to come. Buon appetito! Tuition includes all food fees. Please bring several containers to take home finished dishes, and if you like, an apron.
