Milk Street Digital Class: Herb-Laminated Pastas with Meryl Feinstein

About this Pre-Recorded Class:

In springtime, we all get excited by leafy herbs, some of the first signs of the warming weather. So what if we told you that fresh herbs don’t have to just be a finishing flourish on your favorite pasta dishes—they can be inside the pasta dough itself? Guest chef and founder of Pasta Social Club Meryl Feinstein is the teacher of this pre-recorded Zoom livestream class where you’ll learn to make visually stunning handmade pasta that puts the flavors of spring right into the dough. You’ll learn how to pick the right herbs for the job: fan-shaped parsley is visually stunning, as are frilly dill fronds and aromatic sage. And speaking of dough, you’ll learn Meryl’s go-to recipe, which has just three ingredients. As with most short-ingredient-list recipes, though, you’ll benefit from a professional’s tips and tricks to get it just right. You’ll learn how to transform the dough into flat noodles—like linguine or lasagna sheets—that put the laminated herbs at center stage. Plus, we provide tips for great sauce pairings and advice on how to store and save your homemade pasta.
