Prepare Tiramisu

As the first activity of the class, participants prepare the classic Italian dessert tiramisu.

Chef Ferdinando guides everyone through the steps, sharing his grandmother Maria’s time-honored recipe. Together, they whisk eggs and sugar, then fold in mascarpone cheese.

Ladyfingers are dipped in espresso and arranged in a dish. The creamy mixture is spread over the cookies, and a dusting of cocoa powder completes the tiramisu.

Mozzarella History and Noodle Making

After enjoying the tiramisu and local wine, the class turns its attention to learning about the history of mozzarella.

Chef Ferdinando explains the origins of this iconic Italian cheese:

• Mozzarella was first produced in the 12th century by Italian farmers in the Campania region.

• The name "mozzarella" comes from the Italian verb "mozzare", meaning to cut or pinch off.

• Traditional mozzarella was crafted by hand, with the cheese being stretched and kneaded until it reached the desired smooth, stringy texture.

• Today, mozzarella remains a staple in Italian cuisine, often used in classic dishes like Caprese salad and pizza.

With this historical context, the class is ready to begin making their own noodles.
