Sip & Speak Italiano Rewind Edition: An Introdction to Italian Wine & Language *In-Person

Let’s take a look back at two of our favorite Sip &amp; Speak evenings, where Italian wine met Italian language learning. In these past editions, we explored the delicate bubbles of Prosecco Superiore and the bold character of Chianti Classico Riserva, pairing each sip with lively Italian expressions and cultural curiosities. Between tasting notes and language tips, we uncovered the stories behind the vineyards—and, of course, enjoyed great company. Curious how wine can help you learn Italian? Let's do it again! This class is for students who have no or very little knowledge of Italian. Tuition includes wine. Instructor: Lucia Campo 2 Thursdays, 7-8:30pm. Sep. 4 &amp; 11 This class will meet in-person at CCAE.

The Art of Caramelle with Chef Jimmy of Pammy’s *In-Person* *NEW*

Caramelle, a charming and quirky pasta from Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region - a beacon of Italian gastronomy - is as delightful to make as it is to eat. Aptly named after its resemblance to wrapped candies ("caramelle" means "candies" in Italian), the pasta is a feast for both the eyes and the palate. In this hands-on, three-hour class, Chef Jimmy Dunne will guide you through the process of making Garnet Yam Caramelle. You'll start by crafting an egg-rich dough, rolling it thin to achieve a delicate yet resilient texture. Then, you'll fill each piece with a silky, sweet puree of baby garnet yams, enriched with umami-packed miso and balanced with a hint of lime. To complete the dish, you'll learn to prepare a broken brown butter sauce that enhances the pasta's deep, nutty flavors. To provide a crisp and peppery contrast, the dish will be finished with a simple salad of fresh red watercress. Join Chef Jimmy for an unforgettable evening of hands-on pasta making, rich flavors, and expert guidance! Instructor: Chef Jimmy Dunne This class will meet in-person at CCAE.
