Description

Marcella Hazan, noted cookbook author, culinary instructor and "the first mother of Italian cooking in America", according to Lidia Bastianich, was an advocate of simple preparations. She focused on fresh ingredients and had a rare insight into the complexity of flavors that is the essence of Italian regional cooking. As you sit back, relax, and enjoy your meal, you'll pick up tips from our instructors as they show you how to make some of her classic recipes.

For ages 18 & up. 21 or older? You'll enjoy a glass of wine that has been perfectly paired with your meal.
