Pizza night!

Another fun night and lots of Italian artisan pizza,
First Gaetano gave a brief history of the creation of the pizza
as we know it.


















Then he showed the proceedings to make the pomodoro sauce and the preparation of the dough from scratch, and he even gave us a demonstration of how to fly a pizza on the air!
















But definitely the best part was to try all the different kinds prepared, and to finish with another amazing pannacotta covered with zarzamora jam that the boys also learned how to make.
Bravissimo Gaetano!

Next Tuesday Class pizza and pannacotta!

There are 3 seats still available for Tuesday 15 of December.
Learn the secrets to a perfect pizza dough from scratch, have fun making your own pizza with prime fresh ingredients like arugula, seafood, and genuine Italian cheeses among others.

Pannacotta is a traditional Italian dessert, truly delicious.
