Pronto Italiano Workshop

Get ready to embrace the vibrant flavors of Italy in our Pronto Italiano cooking workshop! Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate home cook, this class is designed to bring the essence of Italian cuisine to your kitchen.

Learn the art of pasta as you identify and master different pasta varieties. Discover the secrets to cooking pasta perfectly every time, and elevate your dishes with two exquisite scratch-made sauces: the rich and aromatic Marinara and the vibrant and fresh Pesto.

Our skilled chef will guide you through a dynamic Chef Demo, followed by hands-on practice where you'll refine your culinary skills. Breakout sessions allow you to dive deeper into the techniques that make Italian cuisine so beloved.

We take pride in catering to your dietary preferences and the season's finest offerings, ensuring that every menu incorporates major proteins, starches, dairy, and delightful seasonal fruits and vegetables.

Experience the joy of crafting an authentic Italian meal, from pasta perfection to the harmony of flavors in your sauces, and culminate your culinary journey with a classic Italian dessert.

Pronto Italiano is more than a workshop – an exploration of taste, technique, and the heart of Italy, brought to you at our teaching kitchen at the Schottland YMCA in Rochester, New York.
