We all know about potato gnocchi, but there are many more types that add interest and variety to a regional Italian menu. Delicious options like ricotta, semolina, pumpkin and even prune. Just to name a few. Join Rosa for this hands-on and demonstration workshop where you will get to make, taste and take home samples of gnocchi. (Although one recipe will be gluten free, this class is not suitable for coeliacs or dairy intolerant).

Your Tutor is Rosa Matto

Rosa Matto commenced with the WEA in 2014.

Rosa's career in teaching and hospitality spans four decades. 

Currently, her recipes appear in SA Life magazine. She is Leader of SLOW FOOD SA and holds very strong views on inclusivity regarding food sources and targeting food waste. 

Another of Rosa’s great obsessions is travel. So, her recipes and knowledge come from her years of leading travellers through Europe and SE Asia. Of course, her particular passion is the food, wine and culture of Italy where is has lived and travelled widely, over many years 

She is also a great gardener – and most of the produce she uses is from her own or her assistant, the very talented, Nancy Colarco’s, garden. Being a gardener influences her food – it is always local, seasonal and accessible. 

The recipes are carefully written and the classes offer great tips for adaptation, and transformation, for you and your family.
