Workshop: Cook & Dine – A Night in Italy
€75,00
A pasta-making and Italian cooking workshop in Naarden
An evening of Italian cooking, fresh pasta, and natural flavours.
At Sensorium44 in Naarden we prepare a full five-course Italian menu together, using seasonal ingredients, herbs from the garden, and traditional techniques. You learn how to make fresh pasta by hand, cook authentic Italian dishes, and sit down together for a proper Italian dinner in a relaxed, sensory setting. A moment to unwind, cook slowly, and enjoy good food and drink together.
WHAT WE COOK
We follow the natural flow of an Italian meal, with a focus on fresh, handmade pasta:
- Garden salad
A fresh mix of vegetables, seeds, and edible flowers to awaken the palate and support balance. - Antipasto
Crostini with ripe tomatoes and creamy burrata, or a small serving of vitello tonnato, depending on the season and the group. - Fresh handmade pasta
The heart of this pasta workshop: choose between silky tagliatelle or filled pasta, such as our beetroot pasta with ricotta.
Served with either a seasonal vegetable ragù or a traditional meat ragù. - Main course
A seasonal meat dish — think scaloppine, osso buco, or tagliata — served with roasted vegetables and sauce. For those who prefer fish, we work with the best of the catch, also served with vegetables and sauce. Both options vary with the season and availability. - Light Italian dessert
A small dolce to finish the menu, such as a fresh lemon dessert.
We cook side by side in a warm kitchen with views of the garden.
After cooking, we sit down together for a quiet, shared dinner — a simple Italian evening in the heart of Naarden.
