Osso Bucco & Polenta Perfection: Northern Italian Favorites

Join Chef Eric for an immersive culinary journey through the rich, comforting flavors of Northern Italy, specifically the Lombardy region. This hands-on class focuses on the art of slow-cooking and perfectly balancing simple, fresh ingredients to create an unforgettable meal. You'll master the techniques required to prepare the signature dish of Milan—tender, fall-off-the-bone Osso Bucco (braised veal shanks). We'll also learn how to cook creamy, traditional Polenta to soak up all those savory pan juices, and bright, zesty Gremolata (a classic parsley, lemon, and garlic condiment) for a perfect finishing flourish. To complete our meal, you'll prepare light and luxurious Baked Ricotta Cheese Cakes, a delightful, easy-to-make dessert that’s less heavy than traditional cheesecake. Come ready to braise, stir, and savor! You'll leave this class with expert tips, confidence in slow-cooking, and the ability to recreate this impressive Northern Italian feast at home.
