Open up the fridge door, what do you find? A little bit of this and that and a major amount of "useless" vegetables. It may not sound so good to you, but in all honesty, some of the best pasta dishes are created with just a few items. They're my "5 and 10 treasures" - 5 items in 10 minutes. The menu includes: Penne in Pink Velvet Clam Sauce; Linguine with Asparagus and Lemon Sauce; Penne with Green Beans, Prosciutto, Tomato and Sage; Farfalle with Artichokes, Puttanesca Style. (participation class) $65/person at Chef's Laboratory Cooking School.
