In this class, Chef Alisha will explore a personal passion, the elegant art of French Patisserie. You'll learn three classic and beatiful desserts. First, we'll create the thin almond cake, coffee-flavored buttercream, and dark chocolate ganache to layer together a gorgeous Opera Cake. Next, on to Paris-Brest, the lesser known, wheel-shaped cousin of the éclair. This choux pastry dessert showcases a star of local agriculture: the hazelnut. The class will finish with a classic Tarte au Citron, or lemon tart, with a simple buttery tart shell, silky lemon curd, and topped with a torched meringue. Chef Alisha will walk you through all the steps and give you the tips you need to create artful pastries. All recipes have been modified by her so they can be recreated by students in a home kitchen environment. 

Dietary/allergen info: Class ingredients include wheat, dairy, tree nuts, and eggs.

If you've been wanting to learn the basics of Homemade Pasta, this is a great place to start! Chef Amy will guide you through the process of making pasta dough, both by hand and using a food processor. Then, we'll use the doughs to create a machine-cut Homemade Egg Fettucini, and a basic Ravioli with Ricotta Filling. Meanwhile, we'll cook and sample three sauces: a simple and flavorful Vodka Tomato Sauce; a Winter Greens Pesto; and a tasty Lemony Alfredo Sauce. Buon appetito!

Dietary info: The recipes for this class may include the following common allergen ingredients: dairy, egg, and tree nuts (walnut). The class is vegetarian but does contain dairy in every sauce.
