DETAILS: Pasta with Paolo brings pasta making into full focus with wine pairings, as the Italians would no doubt have it. Featuring Chef Paolo Laboa and resident wine guy, Jesse Bania, this class will teach the ins and outs of pasta (shape will be a surprise!) and pairing its preparation with the perfect wine. You'll delve into the history of pasta and some of Paolo’s own pasta-making stories.
After some hands-on work, your pasta will then head to the kitchen where Paolo will finish and present them in two distinctly unique manners. While you enjoy the fruits of your labor with your classmates, you'll learn about bridge ingredients within those preparations that might affect a suggested pairing, using two specially selected and presented by Jesse.
