Great pasta isn’t just a recipe, it’s technique. In Pasta & Sauce Essentials, Chef Sue shares her Italian American chef heritage along with restaurant-tested methods that turn an everyday pasta night into something truly special. This Chef’s Table class focuses on quality store-bought pasta so you can master the skills you’ll use most often at home. You’ll learn how to choose the right pasta shape, properly salt and cook past to true al dente, and finish it the Italian way; tossed directly in the pan with sauce and a splash of water for a silky, well-seasoned result.
Chef Sue will also cover practical shopping guidance for Italian ingredients, classic pasta-and-sauce pairings, and a simple repeatable finishing method you can rely on every time you cook pasta. She’ll serve around the kitchen island a Cavatappi alla Vodka, a simple Italian Green Salad, warm Italian Bread served with Olive Oil for dipping, a classic Tiramisu and Italian sparkling water. Feel free to bring your own favorite Italian red wine for your setting.
Chef’s Table - Pull up a seat at our kitchen island for an intimate, front-row look allowing you to watch the Chef’s techniques up close. You’ll relax and savor every course as they are prepared right before your eyes.
