Nailed it!, Che Pasta! the virtual cooking night focused on PASTA dishes was organized on April 23rd 2021, for all students enrolled in Italian. Prior to the event students were asked to pick a recipe they wanted to cook off a list. On the day of the event students cooked in small groups with those who wanted to prepare the same dish, using Italian recipes. In the end, they shared their final dish for a “virtual taste”. Most of the students tried these dishes for the first time and were very satisfied and motivated to try cooking Italian dishes in the future as well, using these Italian recipes and others. Borbi Gaspar and Giulia Negretto, and Federico Fabbri were very impressed by the talented chefs. It was very hard for them to have only a “virtual taste” of the beautiful dishes that students prepared.
