Pasta + Gossip: Hand-Shaped Pasta Skills

Welcome to Pasta + Gossip — a playful, hands-on pasta-making class inspired by the Italian tradition of gathering, talking, and cooking together. In this session, you’ll learn how to make and shape pasta completely by hand. We’ll use heritage grain pasta flour for a super flavorful and golden-hued pasta dough, then roll it out with a pasta machine and simple kitchen tools. This class is about both the technique of making everyday pasta, and the culture of sharing stories, cooking with what you have, and making something special to feed the people around you.

What to Expect

Hands-on instruction and pasta-shaping practice
Multiple courses of pasta to enjoy throughout the class

Meet Your Instructor
Zach Martinucci loves telling stories about food, over food, and even through food. He studied Culinary Anthropology at UCLA and the University of Bologna, and Professional Bread and Viennoiserie at the San Francisco Baking Institute. As the founder of Rebel Bread, he now brings his passions for culture and cuisine together to craft story-worthy experiences over food.

Zach is an Italian-Jewish grandmother at heart and enjoys working with all kinds of dough, including sourdough (his first love) and gnocchi (his favorite dough to make at home and to teach).
