Dough to Dessert: 3-in-1 Cooking Class near Piazza Navona
Master the art of making fettuccine, ravioli, and mouthwatering tiramisu in a single day!
Looking for that cooking class in Rome that gives the most at the best value? This is it. Really. In a professional Italian kitchen, you'll be guided step-by-step through the time-honored process of handmaking two pastas and a dessert. Our passionate chefs love sharing real techniques and tips, so you can bet you'll get your workout in as you knead that dough to perfection under their watchful eyes. And your tiramisu will come out perfectly fluffy and soft to enjoy with your homemade meal.
- Best value cooking class in Rome
- Learn tiramisu secrets
- Build your own tiramisu
- Mix up your dough
- Cut your pasta
- Stuff your ravioli
- Wine and dine with friends
- Fun for everyone
Head to a professional kitchen where you'll suit up (ok, apron up) alongside your fellow students and world travelers. Your chefs will lay out the plan for the class and get right into teaching you the secrets of a successful tiramisu. While your dessert chills and softens, you'll start on the two pastas from the same batch of dough. After some figurative elbow grease, your hard work is rewarded with a glass of wine or other drink alongside your own dish of pasta.
3-in-1 Cooking Class Tour Description
Your 3-hour cooking class includes:
Hands-on instruction from professional chefs
Use of professional kitchen and equipment
Homemade fettuccine and ravioli meal with a choice of sauces
A glass of wine or soft drink
Tiramisu dessert followed by coffee or limoncello

Authentic Tiramisu
It's easy to mess up a great tiramisu, but not when you have a seasoned chef by your side. Follow their tips for success and you're sure to be able to re-create this tasty treat at home. You'll use fresh ingredients like ladyfingers, mascarpone cheese, and eggs to build your own dessert to die for. And you'll feel confident with this early success to tackle the pasta dough next!
Fettuccine and Ravioli
Now it's time to master those pasta-making skills you're aching to brag about when you get home. So with sleeves rolled up, watch your chef carefully lead you through each step of the process. No machines, no tools. Just your hands and muscles feeling each push and pull of the dough as you build that ever-important gluten.
Once you've worked to roll that dough out to your chef's approval, it's time to learn about all the different types of pasta that can be cut. For this class, you'll master cutting the proper size of fettuccine with half of your dough. Then compare how well you do against the rest of your group as you carefully stuff and pinch off your ravioli so it won't explode as it cooks! Don't worry—your chefs are there to help you out.
Wine and Dine
Finally, after your hours slaving away in the kitchen and laughing with your fellow students, it's time to sit back and enjoy your meal. Enjoy the company of like-minded travelers as you sample what truly authentic, fresh pasta tastes like. Warning: it might forever ruin Olive Garden for you, and that's actually ok. After all, Italians know Italian food best—and now you will too!
