CocuSocial: Gnocchi with Tomato Sauce

Done right, these pillow-soft dumplings melt in your mouth and vanish off the plate.

In this fun and engaging class, you will learn the tricks on how to make the classic dough recipe from scratch. The gnocchi will be accompanied with two classically Italian easy sauces. The first sauce is with tomato, garlic, parmesan cheese, and fresh herbs. The second sauce is with burnt butter and sage. You will also learn all the techniques you need to ditch gluey pre-packaged gnocchi for good.

No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste testing). You will work with other students in groups of 2-4. 

Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in, especially if you’re part of a large group. Drinks are available for purchase from the venue and are NOT included in the ticket price. Outside drinks are not allowed. 

21+ only.
