HOMEMADE PASTA II - AMORE!!!

Hi Everyone! So I've been taking a Pasta course at Brookline Adult Education. Yesterday was the last night of my two day pasta class. I'm so sad it's over!! I had so much fun, learned a lot, and met some really nice people. (I was eating a lot of the time and didn't get to take as many pictures. I'll probably update with another entry of pasta making as I attempt to make dinner outside of class)

To recap my first class: we concentrated on making ravioli and some fettuccine. YUMM!!!



1. Butter herb Sauce
2. Butternut squash ravioli with a butter sage sauce!!!!

Last night was a class that concentrated on making sauces, pasta, and dumplings:


1. Me folding dumplings the way my grandma showed me
2. I did two with the pasta presser ( half moon shapes) and 2 old school grandma style :)

Jonathan teaching me a thing or two: how to fold tortellini [click images to enlarge]

Jonathan and I with our pasta!


For the Dumplings we pan fried them a little then poured in 1/4 cup of water and steamed. DELICIOUS!!
For other pasta, just boil and serve with your favorite sauces!

A look at some pretty awesome people:


These are the only pictures I have of everyone

Special Thanks to Chef Edgar!! This class exceeded my expectations, thanks for taking the time to teach and share some great cooking secrets! I love the Julia Child quotes as well :)


Edgar made the most DELICIOUS Basil Gelato served with strawberries, whip cream and drizzled with a balsamic vinegar honey glaze. What a sweet treat!
