Mother’s Day pasta workshop in Lisbon for anyone who wants to spend the day making something genuinely delicious together. Hosted by Sara Di Rocco at her home in Lisbon, this hands-on session teaches you to make fresh pasta or gnocchetti entirely from scratch using just flour, eggs, nonna’s favourite Imperia machine and your own hands. You choose your pasta style, you choose your sauce, and then you sit down together to eat the meal you just made, paired with wine, beer or soft drinks. A recipe card follows after the workshop so you can do it again at home whenever you want. The session runs under the watchful supervision of Sara’s cat Covinha. Please flag any allergies or concerns in advance.<\/p>\n
Sara’s approach to Italian cooking is rooted in the belief that the best meals are the ones you make yourself, and this workshop reflects that fully. You learn proper dough consistency and kneading technique, how to use the Imperia machine to roll pasta to the right thickness, and the specific hand techniques for whichever pasta style you choose, cutting tagliatelle ribbons, pressing chitarrina through wires, filling and sealing ravioli, or shaping gnocchetti ridges. The sauce or filling is prepared alongside the pasta, and everything comes together at the table in a genuinely traditional Italian home cooking experience.<\/p>\n

I am Sara Di Rocco and alongside my sourdough, kimchi, bone broth, tea blending, tea meditation, pizza and pasta sauce workshops, this is one of the sessions I love most. Fresh pasta rewards understanding the process, and the Imperia machine rewards patience, which makes this a perfect afternoon for a day that deserves to feel unhurried and genuinely celebratory.<\/p>\n
Sessions run with a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 10 participants. Two tickets must be purchased for the workshop to be confirmed.
