I really learned a lot and my mouth was watering the whole time
Francine is a story teller. I learned a lot about, the types of pasta and how they are used in various dishes in different areas of the north and south. Mouth watering photos and Francine's descriptions left me hungry for food and travel!
Francine took us on a delicious tour of the pastas of Italy ... I had no idea that certain shapes of pasta come from specific regions of Italy. A fun and interesting seminar with great visuals.
Francine Sagan certainly has a huge amount of knowledge and experience related to pasta shapes and dishes from throughout Italy, and great enthusiasm and passion for the subject. The illustrations of forms of pasta, finished dishes and related subjects were abundant and beautiful. If I had any suggestion, it would be that there were perhaps too many pieces of information and illustrations too quickly, to be able to absorb it all and take notes.
I loved this seminar. Francine took us all over Italy with wonderful stories, information and mouth watering photography. A wonderful treat
