Welcome to Milano, Italy’s fashion capital and capital of the northern region of Lombardy. Here is where Italy’s famed Arborio and Carnaroli rice varieties are cultivated, in vast swaths of low plains outside the city. It’s also where some of the best beef and veal are raised.

In this class we will make two traditional recipes featuring ingredients from the region: Osso Buco alla Milanese (veal shanks braised in a rich brown sauce), and Risotto allo Zafferano. (saffron-infused risotto). And for dessert: a chic jewel-toned blood orange and Campari granita.

You’ll receive detailed instructions, including printable recipes, a week before class. The day before class you’ll receive a reminder email with a link to join the class online.

All classes take place on Zoom in U.S. Eastern time zone. Spaces are limited to 8 to 10 participants so that everyone receives the individual attention necessary to master the techniques featured in class. PLEASE READ THE ONLINE COOKING CLASSES PAGE for general information about classes and our cancellation policy.
