December 16: Italian American Classics: Sunday Sauce
Few cuisines inspire as much devotion — and as much spirited debate — as the food created by Italian immigrants in the United States.
Whether you grew up like Carmela Soprano, eating baked ziti at every family gathering, or your ideas about Italian-American food come from the spaghetti scene in Lady and the Tramp, you’ll find something to love here.
In this class, Rock Silva will teach you how to make a classic “Sunday sauce,” a slow-cooked tomato sauce used to braise nonna’s fennel sausage and beef meatballs with basil and bucatini, along with a treasured family recipe for stuffed eggplant parmesan with mozzarella and ricotta.
You’ll round out the table with an antipasto salad of salami, prosciutto, mortadella, roasted peppers, marinated olives and mushrooms, and anchovy dressing, plus sautéed broccoli rabe with chili and garlic.
