Last Tuesday (2/22/11) after my 6-8:30 class (which generally is out by 7:45pm) instead of going to frisbee practice I took a gelato workshop offered by the school. We worked in the Apicius kitchens, Apicius is the cooking school that is affiliated with FUA (where I go to school) right down the street from where I live. Our instructor Dasey was not from Italy, which was kind of interesting, but has been teaching Italian cuisine for years. He also said on of his favorite gelato shops is on my street within a block (a frequent stop on my way home from class or after dinner). We began the class with a hazelnut gelato and then continued to make fresh strawberry gelato, next was a lemon grinata (basically more like a snow cone than gelato) and we finished with making small cookies (lady fingers).
