Italian Sausage Making Class

What you'll learn

From mince to masterpiece – master the art of Italian sausage making with our cooking short courses in Sydney!

Love Italian food? Roll up your sleeves and dive into a hands-on workshop that celebrates bold flavours, time-honoured tradition, and seriously good produce.

You’ll learn to make real-deal Italian sausages from scratch, using premium, pasture-raised meat sourced from a local Italian butcher who knows their pancetta from their prosciutto.

You’ll mix a punchy Southern Italian spice blend, get the hang of filling and linking like a pro, and leave with a bundle of fresh handmade sausages – plus the skills (and confidence) to keep the sausage party going at home.

This isn’t your average snag – it’s Italy in a casing.
