Class Description:
A first in our new Teen Pro-Series classes, this 2-day series is designed specifically for teen chefs ages 14-18 years. Taught by acclaimed Executive Chef Richard McPeake, the students will receive a Master Culinary Class in Italian pastas and the sauces that pair with them. The young chefs will learn how to make several styles of handmade dough from scratch and how to fashion that dough into various shapes, some of which will be made by hand and some of which will utilize a pasta machine. In addition, we'll learn fundamentals of several types of sauces that pair with those various pasta shapes. We’ll explore braising techniques for cooking pasta and learn the important differences in the flours used to make pasta. Some of the dishes taught will be Fettuccini alla Burro (the original Alfredo!), Tagliatelle Pasta Bolognese, Chef's 300-year-old Sicilian Marinara Sauce, Handmade Lasagna using pasta sheets, Handmade Sweet Potato Ravioli with Brown Sage Butter Sauce, and Handmade Rolled Cannelloni. No experience is necessary, this is a beginner-friendly course. Students will taste each dish as we go (so no need to bring a lunch). These lucky students will build a foundation in cooking that will last a lifetime!

• For This Teen Class: To attend this class you must be at least 14 years old as of the class date (or as of the first date of the first class of a series) and up to 18 years. For all students less than 18 years an 'Under 18 Waiver' must be executed by a parent or legal guardian (click here  for a copy of the "Under 18 Waiver.)  All students 18 years old must executed an "Adult Waiver' (click here for a copy of the ‘Adult Waiver’.)  We encourage you to download, print and sign the waiver and bring it to class with your child (or email it in advance to heather@kcculinary.com). If someone other than the parent drops off your child under 18  years of age and requests to sign on behalf of a child, they will need evidence that they are a legal guardian for that child.  Please choose the class that is right for the developmental level of your child.
