In this 2-hour Naples cooking class, you’ll learn to make fresh pasta or pizza from scratch. Some dishes you may enjoy are mozzarella in carrozza (fried mozzarella sandwiches) or local sausages with broccoli or local fish, and caprese ravioli with butter and sage or spaghetti alla Nerano (spaghetti with fried zucchini, provolone, and basil), or pizza. End your homemade meal in Naples with a classic limoncello tiramisu, a regional specialty. After cooking, enjoy the delicious meal you’ve helped prepare.
