Instructor: Austin Coe Butler

Class Type: Hands-On! These are our most involved and participatory classes, where you get the opportunity to learn a hands-on skill. Anyone can do it, though--no prior experience required to attend!

WHAT YOU'LL GET IN THIS CLASS:

  • chef-led demonstration
  • make your own fresh ricotta from liquid milk to take home and enjoy
  • a light dinner of ricotta gnudi prepared by our instructor alongside a glass of wine or beer
  • take-home notes and recipes
  • some lasting memories!

While our popular mozzarella making class has gone into hibernation to await the warmth of summer, we're delighted to offer our next cheese making class: ricotta! Traditionally made by "re-cooking" (ri-cotta) the left over whey from the cheese making process, ricotta has become one of the most popular and beginner friendly cheeses to make in the home kitchen. We’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of turning liquid cow's milk into delicate, snowlike curds of fresh ricotta. If you've never tasted warm ricotta, you're in for a treat! We'll talk about the many uses of fresh ricotta before sitting down to a light dinner of ricotta gnudi prepared by our instructor before you leave with your own ricotta to use at home.

DIETARY: Please note that our cooking classes may include gluten, eggs, dairy, nuts, and/or meat products. Please state any dietary restrictions in the registration form or via email, and we'll do our best to accommodate.

IMPORTANT STUFF: 

  • Tickets are non-refundable. If you cannot attend a class you have registered for, registration may be transferable to another France 44 class, or, if given a 48+ hour notice, we can issue you a class credit.
  • We love kids, and they are welcome in this class! All of our cooking classes are suitable for children 16+, and we welcome younger children as well, but please email us before you purchase a ticket so we can help determine if a particular class is appropriate for your kiddo! Children must be attended by an adult during the class.
  • If you have dietary restrictions, please email austin@france44.com or call us as soon as possible. We will do our best to accommodate all requests!
