For those who believe pasta should be taken seriously – but not too seriously – Italian Deli Online and Makers Landing are offering something a little more hands-on this April.
At the centre of it is a pasta-making experience that goes beyond recipes.
Set for 23 April at Makers Landing, the workshop is built around the fundamentals that actually make a difference—understanding flour, mastering dough, and knowing why technique matters.
- Participants won’t just follow steps. They’ll get into the detail: why Italian “00” flour creates a smoother texture, how proper kneading develops structure, and what resting time does to transform dough into something workable and silky. From there, it moves into shaping—tagliatelle, ravioli, and the subtle ways different forms affect cooking and sauce pairing.
There’s also the part most people overlook: cooking it properly. Water temperature, salt ratios, and timing all come into play, along with the logic behind pairing the right sauce to the right shape.
Entry isn’t bought—it’s earned. Spend R2000 on italiandelionline.co.za, send through your order details, and you’re in the draw to win a seat at the table. Shop well, cook better, and possibly walk away with a skill that sticks long after the night ends.
