Pasta—possibly Italy’s most beloved culinary contribution–comes in hundreds of shapes and is served in thousands of sauces. Join Francine Segan, noted food historian and author of Pasta Modern, for an amusing talk on pasta's tantalizing history and interesting regional dishes, from north to south.

Learn what’s cutting edge in Italy today and which must-try pasta dishes to order in Italy. Discover modern twists on historic pasta dishes including dessert pasta, and we’ll even have time for a peek at modern and antique pasta-making equipment. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of why pasta has stood the test of time, tips on how cook and pick the best dried pasta. Attendees will receive a handout of recipes to help channel your inner Italian at home.

Join us LIVE for a lecture, followed by a Q&A where you can ask Francine Segan your questions.
