Handmade Ravioli - Virtual Cooking Class
Saturday March 13th, 5:15p-6:30p
Join Italian-trained Chef Chris and discover how easy it is to make ravioli at home while helping to raise funds for the Swedesboro-Woolwich PTO.
During this family and kid-friendly virtual cooking class with Chef Chris, you will learn how to prepare two different kinds of ravioli completely from scratch using fresh, high-quality ingredients and easy-to-master cooking techniques. Chef Chris will begin by teaching you how to make the pasta dough (no pasta machine required). Then, you will begin handcrafting three-cheese ravioli featuring pecorino, ricotta, and Parmigiano, as well as spinach and ricotta ravioli with a subtle hint of nutmeg.
“You'll make ravioli from scratch with ingredients that you can easily find. We'll use what you already have in your kitchen — a knife, a rolling pin and a mixing bowl. Get ready to cook like a true Italian chef. Your fresh ravioli are easy to make and freeze beautifully — giving you a tasty meal for weeks to come.” - Chef Chris
