About the class

Join us for a hands-on culinary class where you’ll learn to craft authentic Italian pizzas from scratch! We’ll start with the beloved Classic Margherita, featuring homemade dough, rich San Marzano tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, and basil. Next, dive into bold southern Italian flavors with Salsiccia & Friarielli, a rustic combination of savory sausage and sautéed broccoli rabe. Finally, we’ll end on a sweet note with a fun favorite—Nutella Pizza, topped with creamy hazelnut spread and toasted hazelnuts. Perfect for food lovers of all levels, this class blends tradition, technique, and delicious rewards fresh from the oven.

Recipes for this class:

  • Classic Margherita (with homemade dough and San Marzano sauce)
  • Salsiccia & Friarielli (sausage and broccoli rabe)
  • Nutella Pizza (a sweet ending with hazelnut spread and toasted hazelnuts)
