Pasta Cooking Workshop and Dinner:
You Can Pasta!

In the Italian tradition, fresh pasta was made at home every Sunday and on holidays, to be consumed at the family table with a wide variety of sauces. Today, you can enjoy fresh pasta in a wide variety of situations. Why not make your own at home! It’s surprisingly simple and invariably delicious! In the workshop we will start by relaxing and getting to know each other with a homemade snack and a drink; then we will prepare the pasta dough with some energy, a pinch of technique and a lot of laughter. We’ll roll the dough out (we cheat and use a machine) and then shape it and cut it.

On the menu are two favorites from the region of Bologna: tortellini (meat-filled envelopes) and tagliolini (long thin noodles), both served with traditional homemade sauce. We will sit down together for a dinner worthy of the best restaurant, which will be topped off by a typical dessert from Bologna: mascarpone cream. You will receive all the recipes in pdf form in English and all the ingredients can be bought in Brussels.

In an evening at You Can Pasta, expect to hear a lot about everyone's grandmother, and how they made their own special family meal. Expect to laugh with Jennifer's sumo-aerobics kneading technique. And expect to eat wonderful food and to leave refreshed and excited with a couple of new phone numbers in your pocket. You'll be greeted with a smile and a selection of homemade snacks and from there the evening will just fly away.

Jennifer Palumbo, an internationally-minded, professional foodie raised in Bologna, Italy, will be your hostess and trainer for the night. She will teach you the difference between grano duro and grano tenero; between spaghetti and tagliatelle; and between ragu and sauce bolognaise.
