ENR3072 - Lazio

Course Description

We are happy to introduce Chef Salvo Coppola, a native son of Italy, and a classically trained chef who has worked in Italy, Germany, Austria, France and Monaco. He has lived in Naples, Milan, and Trieste, so he has an excellent knowledge of Italy’s regional cuisines. Furthermore, Chef Salvo worked for 24 years as the personal chef of H.R.H. Princess Caroline of Monaco. Chef Salvo will show you how to create authentic Italian, French and other European dishes that you can translate into your own home. 

Course Outline

Lazio is the home region of Italy’s ancient capitol, Rome. Seeing as this class is coming later in fall, Chef Salvo has chosen a menu of warming Roman comfort food. He will teach you how to make a fun and tasty antipasto called suppli al telephono (rice croquettes stuffed with mozzarella cheese). Then, for the primo, we will make a hearty minestra di patate allo zafferano (potato and pasta soup with saffron). For the secondo, Chef Salvo will show you how to make a simple but filling dish of salsicce in padella con broccolini (pan roasted Italian sausages with broccolini). And finally, for the side dish, scarola ripiena (braised escarole stuffed with raisins, pine nuts, and anchovies). When in Rome, eat as the Romans do.
