What You'll Do

Master handmade Italian gnocchi in this cooking class with Chef Jerry.

In this hands-on cooking class, you’ll turn potatoes, 00 flour, eggs and olive oil into gnocchi made completely from scratch. Learn how to mix, roll and shape the dough before cooking your little potato pillows to tender perfection. Then, give your gnocchi the sauce it deserves. You’ll whip up a brown butter and sage sauce with asparagus and a bright squeeze of lemon to keep every bite deliciously balanced.

 

Along the way, you’ll pick up approachable Italian techniques, master those signature gnocchi shapes and discover just how satisfying homemade pasta can be. Come hungry, embrace the carbs and prepare to give potatoes the glow-up of a lifetime. Book your spot today!

I've worked with Chef Jerry several times over the last few years. He's shown me a lot of unique techniques and skills that I still use today and pass on to other newer chefs. He always brings a fun, relaxed atmosphere to the table and is great at building a light-hearted camaraderie with his team.

Unfortunately this was a poor experience for me and others in the class. We started an hour late with no prior notice, and the whole thing was an unorganized mess. Non food grade cooking surfaces flaking paint into our food. No recipe provided, talked to fast to understand, cramped tight space etc etc. We were very disappointed and would not recommend this for anyone.

I felt like he himself was very nice, but the class was very unorganized. There were only 10 people there and I feel like he couldn’t keep track of 10 people. I was missing half the ingredients on my gnocchi and it just was kind of a letdown because I feel like I kept having to ask instead of him, just telling you what you needed to do next and he’s supposed to be the one teaching the class definitely not worth the money unfortunately.
