Mouth-Watering Soups and Stocks: The Building Blocks of World-Class Italian Cooking

Lucia is launching its Cooking Classes with Chef Pino and Donato. For the first time ever, a Food & Wine named “Best New Chef” in America will be offering up his secrets to the patrons of Winchester, Mass. The first installment of this monthly series is titled, “Mouth-Watering Soups and Stocks: The Building Blocks of World-Class Italian Cooking.” Chef Pino and Donato will give guests hands-on training in the art of mouthwatering soup and stock making. Attendees are encouraged to bring a notebook – during the three-hour cooking course, they will learn the basics of how to make simple stocks (chicken stock and prosciutto broth) and how to incorporate them into world-class tasting soups (pasta fagiole and minestrone soup). They will also discuss bread pairings with Piantedosi breads, including how to choose which breads go best with a variety of meals.
