“When in Rome, do like the Romans!”, we say. But what if you are in Milano? If you are, as our resident Italian instructor, Viola, has been in recent months, then you do Ossobuco, the dish that defines Milanese cuisine.

This heavenly pairing of tender, long braised meat and subtly scented Saffron Risotto brightened by Gremolata is deceptively simple. Follow Viola as she walks you, step by step, through shopping tips, cooking techniques and presentation tricks that will have the fortunate denizens of your dinner table begging you for the recipe.

Prepare for a truly emblematic Northern Italian meal, from Viola’s kitchen to yours.

Our online cooking classes are live and interactive. We’ve made this learning experience as close to an in-person class at The Civic Kitchen as we can. Got questions? You’ll get to ask them. Wondering if your dough/sauce/whatever looks right? You’ll be able to show the teacher and find out.

The classes are held via Zoom, with a maximum of 12 students. You only need to purchase one spot per household. Ingredient, equipment and prep lists are available by clicking on the ‘VIEW THE LIST’ button on this page. After registering, you will receive instructions for logging into class at the appointed date/time. Printable recipes will be available 48 hours prior to class start, so you may read ahead, cook along as much as you like, and take notes during class. The class will be recorded and you’ll be able to view the video at any time by logging into your account on our website.
