Class Description

In this cooking class, you'll be able to learn how to make the traditional Lasagna Bolognese (which means from the city of Bologna, northern Italy). The peculiarity of this lasagna is that the pasta sheets are green, this color is obtained by the use of spinach in the dough.

After we’ve prepared the green pasta, we’ll make the ragù Bolognese (that is the same used to season the fresh tagliatelle) and we’ll focus on making the bechamel which is another indispensable preparation for lasagna.

Once all the preps are done, it’s just a matter of assembling the lasagna and baking it in the oven. During the class, Riccardo will tell you some important secrets and tips to make your lasagna as a real lasagna made in Italy.

Day Of Class

Take the eggs out of the fridge at least 1 hour before the class starts. Cook the spinach in boiling water, drain them and let them cool down. Then squeeze to get the cooking water out and finely chop the spinach. Otherwise, it is possible to blend them in a food processor with the eggs instead of chop them.
