Firepit Art Gallery and Studios CIC

Hello! I’m Angelica, I’m a pasta chef born in Parma, currently living in London.I studied Food Systems Management and later expanded my passion for food, working across restaurants around London, making lots of fresh pasta daily. I am currently exploring pasta’s heritage and its cultural role while spending lots of time in the kitchen testing out new and old recipes.The main idea is to share my abilities teaching people how to make fresh pasta and pasta shapes from all over Italy. I approach my cooking using simple yet high-quality ingredients.My favourite dishes include filled ravioli, hand-made orecchiette, sourdough focaccia, and tiramisù.I’m working towards raising awarness around the communal aspect of food making, that nourishes our soul and ultimately helps us to connect with other people. Workshops details:ORECCHIETTE FEASTDuring a two-hour class, you will learn how to make fresh orecchiette, a unique ear-shaped pasta that comes from a region called Puglia in the south of Italy.It will be a dough exploration: you will explore different types of vegan pasta doughs like wholewheat or burntwheat using your hands or the tools provided during the class, and you will shape your orecchiette.In the end, the pasta will be cooked, and you are going to eat it paired with cime di rapa, a sauce that traditionally goes with orecchiette.Making pasta is also about having fun and engaging with other people, so you will have the chance to socialise around the table while prepping your dose of carbs.This pasta workshop is suitable for vegetarians and vegans as the pasta dough is made out of water and semola flour.As an option to purchase whilst making and eating, we have three outstanding wines from the same estate located in Cerignola, northern Puglia. Caiaffa grow all of their grapes organically and treat the land with the greatest respect.We’ll pair the pasta with their white wine made from Fiano, as well as their reds from Primitivo and from Negroamaro. We also have some lovely non-alcoholic wine and drink options.A Note from Firepit.We have hosted Angelica in July, September and November for her pasta making workshops.
