The Slow Food Revolution

When McDonalds tried to set up shop in Italy, thousands of furious Romans took to the streets in protest. The Slow Food movement was born from their passion to preserve local culinary traditions passed down through the ages.

So what are those traditions? One is Cacio e Pepe, the minimalist dish that literally means ‘cheese and pepper‘. It’s a pared down version of mac and cheese, which may sound basic but is simply divine. It’s a testament to the importance of simple, top quality ingredients.

Let’s arrange a cooking class in a Roman home so you can learn how to make this signature dish, along with other Roman favorites like carbonara (pecorino, guanciale, and egg), gricia (guanciale and pecorino), and amatriciana (guanciale, pecorino, and tomato).

We will tour the markets, gather our ingredients, and learn to live La Dolce Vita.
