Italian Cooking Class: virtual cook-along

Cook with Nonna: An Evening of Authentic Italian Flavor 🍝

Step into our kitchen—virtually—and join me and my spirited Italian grandmother (“Nonna”) for an unforgettable cooking experience straight from the heart of Italy. Together, we’ll laugh, chat, and teach you how to prepare Spaghetti alla Checca sul Rogo, a simple yet soul-satisfying dish that bursts with summer-fresh flavor.

Ingredients to have ready:

• Spaghetti (ideally Barilla No. 5, just like Nonna swears by)
• 300g sweet, sun-ripened cherry tomatoes
• 100g freshly grated parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves of fragrant garlic
• A handful of fresh herbs—rosemary, basil, sage—your choice!
• A generous splash of golden olive oil

In just about an hour, we’ll guide you step-by-step—from the sizzle of garlic in the pan to that first heavenly twirl of spaghetti on your fork. Nonna might even share a few of her “secret” tips passed down through generations (and maybe a cheeky story or two).

Get ready for more than just dinner—you’ll be tasting a little slice of Italy itself.
