Risotto, Arancini & Gnocchi with Carmela Hayes

Class details

Carmela is a passionate Italian cookery tutor who specialises in the art of making pasta known as a pastaia (specialist pasta maker).

From simple yet delicious dinner party dishes to elaborate desserts and mesmerising yet stunning pasta dishes. Carmela’s mantra is to cook all dishes within our UK seasons whilst showing and highlighting the beauty that can be made and presented from the humble Italian kitchen. Carmela’s classes will open your eyes to the wonder and possibilities that can be found within the arms of the 20 regions that embrace Italy. From the Northern regions which feature heavily the use of butter, rice, polenta, truffle and game to the southern regions which showcase the abundance of seasonal vegetables, fruits, fish, seafood, pasta and olive oil. A feast for the eyes as well as the tummy!

During this two and a half hour workshop you will learn to cook the following;

Perfect risotto, using techniques that will help you achieve that perfect creamy texture and al dente rice every time.

Master the art of how to make your own arancini, risotto croquettes filled with oozing mozzarella.
