Skip the jarred sauce routine and learn how pasta night is actually supposed to taste. In this relaxed Bay Area cooking class with Chef Alexis, you’ll make fresh pasta from scratch using simple ingredients and techniques that are easier than they look.

You’ll begin by mixing flour, eggs, salt and pepper into a smooth pasta dough, then learn how to knead, roll and shape it by hand. Chef Alexis guides you through each step, sharing useful techniques for working with dough, improving texture and cooking fresh pasta properly.

Next, you’ll prepare a classic red sauce with tomatoes, garlic, onion and butter, creating a rich, comforting flavour that pairs perfectly with your handmade noodles. The atmosphere stays social and low-pressure, making it easy to learn while enjoying good conversation and plenty of hands-on cooking.

The reward is a plate of fresh pasta made entirely by you, plus a kitchen skill that feels far more impressive than saying, “I ordered takeaway.”
