Introductory Pizza class - August 21, 2026 from 7:00 PM to 10:30 PM
Description
Neapolitan pizza is one of the most appreciated and recognized Italian specialties worldwide. It is distinguished by its soft dough, with a well-aerated edge called the "cornicione." The dough preparation requires a long natural fermentation and a quick bake in a very high-temperature oven, which ensures a thin and flexible base with an airy, puffed edge.
Our recipe is designed to be easily reproduced at home, without the need for a professional oven!
Our course will teach you the traditional techniques to prepare this delicious pizza!
Important: don’t forget to bring a large container for your dough!
