A Taste of Tuscany: Handcrafted Ricotta Gnocchi Meal
Step into Italian-inspired elegance with this hands-on culinary experience. You’ll learn to make ricotta gnocchi—delicate, cloud-like bites known for their melt-in-your-mouth texture and subtle flavor. These handcrafted morsels capture the heart of rustic Italian cooking while adding a touch of sophistication to your table. Once prepared, the gnocchi will be transformed into a restaurant-worthy dish, paired with tender chicken and finished with a velvety, herb-kissed Tuscan cream sauce. You’ll also bake a soft French-style loaf to complete this luxurious meal.
This interactive cook-along is more than a class—it’s an experience, an invitation to savor, learn, and bring the flavors of Tuscany into your home. Pre-registration required - click here to register.
Instructor bio: Tess Georgakopoulos, “Chef Tess—Culinary Artist”, has been cooking and baking for well over 45 years, starting around 6 years of age. Growing up in a Greek household, she learned early on that cooking is an act of love—something she continues to share through her classes. Her father, also a trained chef, brought the magic of food to life in another form on the weekends as they cooked elaborate family meals together. She has been teaching both in-person and on-line cooking classes through community education for a number of years and currently works with nearly 60 school districts across Minnesota—including the Twin Cities—and beyond, reaching participants in Wisconsin, Missouri, New York, and Oklahoma. Her motto, eloquently put, is to “make dishing delicious, and simple”.
