Online Cooking Class - Classic Eggplant Parmigiana

Mary Anna

22 Jan 2024

We enjoyed the lesson and eating the creation. We did 1/3 the amount of eggplant and got through the recipe much faster. (It takes a long time to slice-- @1 cm.-- and process 3 lb. Some folks were still processing at the 2-hour mark. We prepped the salad b before Chef got to it. After 2-hours, we signed off, though the lesson was still going.

Awesome class. Stefano was a great instructor. Kind, patient, and super informative. Not to mention, he helped us make the best eggplant parm we've ever had! We highly recommend his class and hope to take his gnocci one soon. Kudos!

It was just bivouac Chef Stephano knew his stuff but the pace of the class could be improved. I found myself rushing through some parts (I.e. chopping onions) while twiddling my thumbs during other parts (cooking the eggplant). It also would have been better if the chef was clearer about what equipment and food needed. For example, he did not let us know in advance we needed a blender and I only had 2 eggplants but he wanted us to have 4. People seemed to be in the class more for social reasons so I left the class after 2 hours because I was there to learn to cook.

It was a fun class and the chef was very knowledgeable. However, it would have been easier with a 2 person recipe rather than four.

Chef Stefano was pleasant to learn from, and he shared some interesting facts about the chemistry of cooking. Perhaps, he was having an off day because the other reviews say he was fun and funny. The class was a little hard to follow because a couple steps were left out, and the written instructions didn't include those details. Overall, something the eggplant parmigiana was good to try.

Stefano is a delight to work with. He is a very patient and encouraging teacher. It was my first time using boiling oil and I was quite nervous. I am no longer nervous and I know now how to be careful. Also, his zucchini salad was lovely!

Grace

03 Mar 2024

I had a fantastic time in this class. We learned useful new skills, including the easiest way to make homemade mayonnaise! And the end product was an absolutely delicious, creative meal. My only feedback would be to budget at least two hours for this class–– although maybe that's just because my sister and I took it together and did entirely too much chatting :)

Patrick

03 Mar 2024

Excellent experience! This was our second lesson with Chef Stafano and we highly recommend his classes. The pace is great, he give lots of great tips and was able to suggest modifications depending on the needs of different groups. The food is also delicious!

Ginger

25 Feb 2024

This was a really good class. It started promptly without any connection issues. Chef Stephano was patient, easy to understand, and helped us step by step. He was a great instructor. I haven't eaten gnocchi prior to this class so I'm still not certain I had the flour to potato right, we were instructed on stickiness of the dough (or lack of). My tiramisu was a winner. I never used Cremovo so this was pretty cool. I signed up for this class because I saw others were registered and my registration would meet the minimum requirement. I've registering for a couple classes and they ended up getting cancelled for not meeting the minimum participants. This is really the only frustration I've had with Cozymeal. Please, sign up for more classes!

He was extremely knowledgeable and shared so many cool tidbits about the science behind the cooking. He was very helpful with his demonstrations and even helped us with appropriate substitutions. Looking forward to our next class with him!

Sandra

27 Nov 2023

This was an online cooking class. making pasta has simple ingredients but not that easy to do. Making the past for me was hard due to arthritis issues--so which there was a slightly homemade suggestion. The Sauce had great flavors. The cake was excellent. Definitely will make everything again

Debbie

Our experience with Chef Stefano was fabulous! We booked this for a bachelorette party and the food was fabulous! We made gnocchi and tiramisu which was to die for! Stefano was attentive and explained the science on why certain foods do certain things when we alter them. It was very interesting and well paced! Stefano was great when I had questions before the class about tools or ingredient substitutes as well! I look forward to trying more classes through Cozymeal!

Kirsten

04 Mar 2023

This was our second class with Chef Stefano and it was as good, if not better than the first. Our gnocchi was easy to make, crispy on the outside, light and pillowy on the inside, and delicious with the cheese sauce. Hearing the backstory about tiramisu was as fun as making (and enjoying) it. Highly recommend!

Karen

03 Mar 2023

Once again Chef Stefano provided excellent instructions on how to make delicious cannelloni and panna cotta. This was my fourth class with Chef Stefano! Highly recommend and look forward to the next online class!

MaryAnn

Chef Stefano is a great chef and teacher. Very patient and kind, very accommodating- he made it all seem so simple. We enjoyed his recipes for tiramisu which was so delish.

21 Mar 2022

Excellent cooking session. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Who knew crespelli's (crepes) were so easy to make! Chef Stefano was so cool and easy going with us 'type A' ladies, I would definitely book him again. Each step was well explained and he patiently waited for some of us to catch up. He was and very engaging with us. There were a few slight hiccups with connectivity, but all was good in the end and the meal itself was fantastic. I learned a lot about making béchamel and sautéing mushrooms....oh and the best part was the Flambe!! No one got burned. LOL

Jason Stratham was such an excellent chef. He was fun and played to the audience. Like other reviewers said, it’s closer to a two hour and fifteen minute class. We were using different equipment to make the pasta and he was able to tell us how we should augment the recipe. We would definitely take his class again.

Laura

15 Jan 2022

Wonderful recipes! More detailed instructions eg. Making purple potato dust; size of pan and utensils required. Tasty recipes!!!

Purnima

11 Jan 2022

Chef Stefano was nice and helpful. However, the class was much too rushed. We stayed on line an extra half hour and still weren't able to finish making (nevermind cooking) the pasta. I was surprised, since he's clearly run this multiple times. I'd suggest leaving out the chocolate cake - just share the recipe so people can use the egg whites later. And focus on the pasta making. The pre course instructions were clear and there pasta was tasty in the end!

Lauren

11 Jan 2022

Chef Stefano's class was excellent! This is the second class I've taken with him, and he does a great job of making more complicated recipes accessible. He really checks in with each student throughout so you don't feel lost, and feel like you can get personalized feedback and ask questions even in a virtual setting. Highly recommend!

Sean

03 Oct 2021

This was a fun alternative for my wife and I to going out to a restaurant. Chef Stefano was great, he walked us through the recipes and was able to offer alternatives and modifications as we went through. Our food was delicious, if maybe a bit more rustic looking than his. My only tip - a three hour class that starts at 6pm means that you won't be eating until 9pm, so plan some appetizers to snack on as you cook to offset all of the wine.

Nancy

01 Oct 2021

Awesome class! We have always wanted to perfect carbonara

Stephanie

26 Sep 2021

Chef Stefano is an incredible chef and teacher! He took a concept that terrified our 14 year old (and us) - homemade pasta - and made the entire lesson attainable and so much fun. He worked with our substituted ingredients with ease, checked in along every step and provided tips and tricks that gave us the confidence to continue on our pasta making journey. A fabulous class, an immensely patient chef and a highly recommended class. You will not be disappointed!

Andrew

We had a great time! Chef Stefano was personable and patient! There was 1 woman that didn't know how (or think to) mute and it seemed like she thought it was a 1on1 but Chef was patient with her and handled it very well. HAHA. I know I will be doing another class. Thanks!

We took one of Chef Stefano’s classes as our first class. He does an awesome job at teaching and making sure everyone is following. He also is very entertaining and down to earth. The pasta and the cake was excellent!!!!

Great experience. Chef Stefano's deep knowledge of the science of cooking helped when measurements or ingredient quality wasn't exactly right. Very patient and a good conversationalist. We did homemade pasta - having never made it before, I'm thankful I had a pasta maker on hand for the rolling and cutting.

Chef Stefano was amazing to work with. Would highly recommend to anyone! He taught my family his carbonara recipe and it was delicious. We were celebrating my Mom’s birthday and he made it a great evening. Very personable, friendly and fun! I messed up my dough for the fettuccine because I bought the wrong flower, but he helped save the dough by improvising using his knowledge of food and saved our meal!

Chef Stefano made Valentine’s Day extra special for our family. He was very patient and sweet with our 12-year old daughters and we all had a blast cooking together. The fettuccini and the chocolate cake were both delicious and perfectly balanced. Chef Stefano gave us great tips to enhance our skill-set and we appreciated his care about not wasting food. We can’t wait to cook with Chef Stefano again.

We had so much fun last night with Chef Stefano and many others from across Canada & US learning how to make Gnocci and Tiramisu! Chef was patient, funny, and very engaging. The class went for 3 hours, and it was like 4am for him in Italy! Would definitely do another class with him, really appreciated some of the history of the foods and culture also. Really fun night!

Kim

We had Chef Stefano for a teambuilding event last night, it was fantastic! We had a phenomenal time...my only suggestion would be to advertise the true length of the class. Other than that, I highly recommend Chef Stefano and this class!

Jill

Chef Stefano's Fettuccine alla Carbonara class was great! I'm actually surprised at the price -- it was an amazing deal for what we learned/made. Chef was extremely knowledgable, helpful, fun, and clearly had a passion for cooking. I would highly recommend a class with him!

Brandon

25 Jan 2021

We had a great time learning to make gnocchi and tiramisu with Chef Stefano! Chef Stefano was very knowledgable and friendly, and it was fun learning a new recipe! We had some difficulty following along at some points because we were simultaneously preparing the gnocchi and the tiramisu, and using different portions from the Chef. However, Chef Stefano answered any questions we had, and the food tasted delicious!

Logan

24 Jan 2021

Chef Stefano was easy-going and informative and kept us entertained for the whole 3 hour class. The food was wonderful and made you appreciate the complexities of seemingly simple dishes. We could not have been more pleased with the experience and will definitely participate again!

Chef Stefano was absolutely wonderful and a master in his field. He was professional and informative with his step by step instructions and great zoomed-in camera angle work, while being patient and responsive to our individual questions - and we had many. Even though we went over our time, Chef Stefano never rushed us. He was also funny and charming. I wanted this to be something memorable for the holidays for my team since we couldn't get together in person this year. Chef Stefano definitely made it memorable. We all had so much fun... lots of laughing and delicious food.

Diana

Chef Stefano was incredibly fun and knowledgeable. He really takes his time to teach you and explain everything that you are doing. He also provides great tips which are very useful! Overall, he is a charismatic person, with great knowledge of food, ingredients and history! We created a delicious recipe and I am thankful for this platform that allowed me and my husband to take a class with him. He was also very responsive before hand when I had questions about the recipe and ingredients. EXTREMELY RECOMMENDED!

What a great experience. We had so much fun in this class! Chef Stefano was great- he made the class really fun and offered up a lot of great tips for us as we had to modify our recipe to be gluten free. Everything turned out amazing. We would love to take another class from Chef Stefano! :) Thank you!

Terrific evening spent in Chef Stefano's Traditional Pasta Carbonera online class! Super interactive and learned new cooking techniques which really opened up a whole new world of cooking, and baking (we made a chocolate cake too!) to us. Super challenging made it all the more fun. Really appreciated the Chef's added comments on the chemistry of ingredients and how they work together and why; he also gave alternative ingredient ideas and how to adjust the recipe for a favorable outcome. Just really great fun! Will definitely look for other classes taught by Chef Stefano.

Suzanne

18 Dec 2020

Great experience! Purchased the class for my 14 year old foodie son. Class was easy to follow, full of great tips, and a lot of fun. Stefano had a great rapport with the class & kept everyone engaged. Plus the meal was so tasty. Highly recommend.

Great session I learned a lot and doing this with my work team was really fun. Loved all the extra detailed info that is not included in most recipes like how do you know when something is mixed enough / done enough etc

Ramy

11 Dec 2020

It was very nice experience, Stefano is very pleasant and competent. I would recommend other food than pasta as it really needs special ingredients (can be tricky)

Stefano was great to have as our guide for our team pasta making class! He patiently walked us through all the steps, shared some cooking tricks, and even provided some vacation tips for the next time we are in Italy!! Thanks for such a fun evening!

ILana

Stefano was a blast. We, two couples one in California and one in Texas, wanted to have a double date and decided this was a fun way to do it as we could not get together in person. It definitely was! Stefano was really fun to work with and the food was delish.

A blast. Chef Stefano was great and very patient with a Zoom class full of us amateurs.

Michele

06 Dec 2020

Chef Stefano was really informative and had a great sense of humor. I definitely learned a lot and feel confident adding gnocchi and tiramisu to my typical dinner rotation. Chef was super patient, and stayed with us to the end (over 3 hours for a two hour class). It was easy to ask questions and show him the sauce/dough consistencies for feedback. I was cooking for two so I halved the recipes. I loved the online platform because I got to learn every part of the recipe in my own kitchen rather than divvying tasks with others. It was a great night, can't wait to try more classes.

Michele

Elizabeth

13 Nov 2020

Chef Stefano was great. Everyone loved the class and the meal turned out well. He was very patient working with everyone and answering questions. We look forward to doing another private class and would definitely work with Chef Stefano again! Only suggestion (for us Americans) is to provide a conversion for the dishes if ingredients are listed using the metric system. Different online sources provide different conversions and we found during the class that confused things - just would be easier to take out the guess work if the recipes were provided with verified conversions to take out the guess work for the chef, guests, and future classes!

Ashley

10 Nov 2020

Chef Stafano was knowledgable, patient, and fun! The recipes were DELICIOUS! It did take longer than the booking originally stated - we cooked for 3 hours! This was a birthday experience for my spouse during COVID and it felt just as fun as if we had been able to go out. Thank you!

Steven

29 Oct 2020

Chef Stefano was great! I cook frequently and even I thought the meal was a little complicated and stressful which clouded the experience. It seemed many people could not get things to whip/reduce correctly and caused confusion by taking longer than others and falling behind in the steps.

We had a ton of fun making this unique dish, and Chef was so patient explaining and checking everything on Zoom!! It was a nice change of pace for these COVID times.

Deborah

07 Aug 2020

Positive - Chef Stefano was engaging, knowledgeable, and provided a number of tips for baking / cooking. The Carbonara recipe and experience was excellent. I also enjoyed the ability to interact on zoom. Suggestions - Provide reminder on reducing recipe for less than 4 people, and eliminate the Egg White Cake - it's too much to handle in 75 minutes and it added little to the overall experience. Maybe add a short module for people that have a Pasta KitchenAid attachment. Maybe... Overall, I enjoyed and will do another class in the futur.

Danielle
