Is it Thursday in Italy? Then bring on the Gnocchi! Across the country, every Thursday restaurants serve up delicious plates of Gnocchi for their special of the evening. But regardless of what night of the week it is, Gnocchi makes a wonderful, comforting meal. Pillowy potato dumplings, lightly coated in a beautiful sauce…

While dumplings are not exclusive to Italy, this version is believed to come from Northern Italy where the colder climate is better for growing potatoes vs grains. It was the perfect peasant food, hearty and filling, but inexpensive. These dumplings are also considered a pasta and come in many variations, even as you make your way across Italy you’ll find every region has their own unique version.

In this private virtual cooking class, one of our chefs video calling you live from Italy, will teach you how to make two classic Gnocchi - from scratch! One in a creamy Gorgonzola sauce and another in a classic, tomato sauce (Gnocchi alla Sorrentina) baked to perfection. And once you know how, you’ll be able to experiment with different ways to dress them up depending on what you’re craving. Let’s head to Italy together and make it Thursday Gnocchi Night!
