Nonna's Lasagne
• Butter and Sage Tortelloni: tortelloni are large pasta pouches, filled with ricotta cheese, parsley and garlic. When served with a simple yet exquisite sauce of melted butter and sage leaves, they create a dish that's both delicate and indulgent.
• Lasagne: a world-famous layered pasta dish featuring sheets of pasta, ragù sauce, béchamel sauce, and cheese, all baked to golden perfection. Each bite offers a harmonious blend of textures and flavours, making it a beloved Italian comfort food.
• Latte in Piedi: a Bolognese classic, its name meaning “standing milk”, is served in loaf pans for its distinctive upright presentation. This indulgent treat features a rich milk base subtly caramelised for a delightful sweetness, offering a taste of home with every slice.
Lasagna is cherished worldwide, earning its place as a beloved comfort food in countless homes. But did you know that it originated right here in Bologna? The earliest reference to lasagna can be traced back to a Bolognese poem from 1282.

By the end of our class, you will have not only tasted this iconic dish in its truest form but also acquired the expertise to prepare authentic Bolognese lasagna!
