Description
Ages 8 to 12 Made with flavorful ingredients and versatile techniques, Italian cuisine is a wonderful starting point for aspiring chefs. In this 5-day camp, kids will cook along with Paola and dig into the key steps for classic Italian dishes — from pasta to risotto and even dessert — while practicing essential kitchen skills.
With dairy and eggs.
About the instructor: Paola grew up in Milan in a family devoted to making good food. When she moved to Seattle in 2005, she started matching local ingredients with regional Italian cooking. Paola began teaching cooking classes at PCC in 2011, and her background includes recipe development for the Italian branch of All Recipes. When she is not in the kitchen, Paola loves to spend time with her family, traveling and exploring new places and discovering new flavors. She believes a beautiful meal starts with fresh, seasonal ingredients, enjoyed with family and friends.
