A good pasta needs just a little sauce. The secret of cooking a great dish of pasta at home is the right ingredients and preparing them properly. Too much sauce ruins the dish and makes it heavier. To make great, yet simple sauces take only about three ingredients. In this Classic Italian Sauces 101 cooking demonstration, discover the ingredients and techniques with the Chef of La Scuola as they take you step by step in preparing classic Italian sauces we all know and love for pasta so you can recreate them at home yourself!

In this cooking demonstration, guests will learn about classic Italian sauces and how they are paired to particular pasta shapes. Guests will explore the key ingredients to prepare a pasta sauce from scratch and will take home the adapted recipes for the pasta sauces created in class.
