Video Membership Site

Since we launched our video membership site in mid-November, we’ve added an incredible wealth of new content. The membership site now offers 80+ video recipes (including a five-part Gnocchi Series, The Ultimate Tiramisu, Our Favorite Chicken Marinade), 14 technique videos (from how to skin a filet a fish to how to chiffonade sage), 5 eBooks, and 15 in-depth articles on Italian cooking (featuring a guide to Italian pasta shapes, basic and advanced pizza techniques, and much more). We've doubled our content since we launched 2 months ago!

There’s enough on the site to keep you busy cooking and learning every day of the year. We're adding more recipes every week and welcome members' requests!

Join now and pay only $120 for a one-year membership; the membership includes a FREE virtual cooking class (valued at $48) and any other virtual class you book with us is $24 (50% OFF).  It's a no-brainer: If you plan to take as few as 4 virtual classes with us (4 x $48 = $192), a one-year membership literally pays for itself ($120 with 1 free class plus option for 3 discounted classes at $24 each - total $120+ $72 =  $192).

We've hosted dozens of events for family, friends, and corporate groups. All you need is a kitchen and a laptop or tablet. The cost is reasonable and the menu is up to you.
