Roman Pasta

Dive into the essential pasta dishes of Rome and explore three of the city’s most beloved sauces—carbonara, amatriciana, and cacio e pepe—each built from just a handful of ingredients, but with its own techniques and character. Chef Nicco will guide us through making pasta dough by hand as we prepare tagliatelle carbonara with local farm egg yolks, garganelli amatriciana with Bianco DiNapoli tomatoes, and spaghetti cacio e pepe with yellowfoot chanterelles, with a shaved fennel and celery salad alongside. At each Class on the Farm you will get the chance to enjoy Bellsong Creamery cheeses, sip a glass of something special, and gather around a beautifully prepared meal. Nicco Muratore was born and raised in Boston, where he got his start cooking at the restaurants inside the historic Fenway Park. He was introduced to Middle Eastern cuisine at Oleana Restaurant and Sofra, before joining The Montagu Kitchen in London’s Grand Hyatt Hotel and then Danny Meyer’s historic Union Square Cafe in New York. He returned to Boston to join chef Steven Postal’s team at the newly opened Commonwealth, where he spent five years working his way from Sous Chef to Chef de Cuisine. We know Nicco from his work at Mamnoon, in Seattle, where he became Chef de Cuisine in 2019. Since then he’s taken the menu to new heights, and in 2022 took over the role of Mama Group Culinary Director, overseeing the culinary teams at all of the Mamnoon-related restaurants. In 2024, he branched out from restaurant work and can now be found in the community teaching classes on fermentation and koji, preservation, and cooking with local foods. Outside of the kitchen, you can find Nicco gardening, hiking, skiing, or in the woods hunting for mushrooms. We understand that plans change! While payments for workshops and events at Bella Luna Farms are non-refundable, you’re always welcome to transfer your spot to a friend if you can’t make it. We’re also happy to offer credit toward a future event—provided we’re able to fill your spot. Giving us as much advance notice as possible helps increase the chances of finding someone, so please reach out as soon as you know you can’t attend. We’ll contact our waitlist and keep you posted. In the rare event that we need to cancel a class due to weather or instructor illness, your enrollment can be transferred to a future class or refunded.
