Fresh Pesto Pasta Workshop

Members' Event

Barbican Kitchen

Discover how to make fresh pasta and the perfect homemade pesto at this fun, interactive workshop with Barbican Kitchen's Chef.

Use our pasta machines to roll pasta from scratch and mix fresh pesto to go with the dish. Originating in Genoa, Italy pesto consists of basil, garlic, olive oil, garlic and pine nuts. Italian pizza chef Victor guides you through the process of creating a balanced recipe.

You'll leave with a fundamental knowledge in pasta making, plus anything that you make on the day. Plus enjoy a complimentary pastry and hot drink and the chance to chat with other Members.

We’ve reduced the number of participants for our cooking workshops so you’ll get even more guidance from our Chef.

Arrive via the Lakeside Terrace entrance on level G from 8.30am to enjoy your complimentary hot drink and pastry. The workshop will start promptly at 9am and finish at 10am so Barbican Kitchen can open to the public.

Suitable for vegetarians, not suitable for those with an intolerance to gluten, dairy or pine nuts.
