WE DON’T JUST SHOW YOU HOW PASTA SHOULD LOOK.
WE TEACH YOU WHAT TO DO WHEN IT DOESN’T.
Is your dough too sticky?
Did it come out too dry this time?
Is it cracking while you roll it?
Why did your dough work perfectly yesterday but feel completely different today?
Why do your fettuccine stick together at the end?
For every one of these problems, there’s usually a reason.
Inside the Club, you’ll learn to recognize what’s happening, understand why it happened, and know what to do next, instead of throwing everything away and starting over.
But the best part? You don’t have to figure it out alone. We work through it together.
That’s the difference between simply following a recipe and really understanding pasta, with someone by your side who makes it every single day.
"The only way to master pasta isn’t through books. It’s by making it. Try. Make mistakes. Share them. Understand what happened. Then try again, knowing exactly what to do differently."
this is what we do together inside the pastatarian club
What You'll Find Inside the club?
Everything you need to make more pasta, understand it better, keep improving and never feel stuck on your own.

AND IT'S NOT FINISHED

The Pasta Collection
It's your ever-growing guide to the world of pasta, every secret, technique, sauce and shape is included here. Instead of wasting time searching online you’ll have it all at your fingertips.
WHY NOT JUST WATCH YOUTUBE?
Because watching someone make perfect pasta isn’t the difficult part.
The difficult part starts when your pasta doesn’t look like theirs.
Most videos show you: “Do this.”
Inside the Pastatarian Club, we also teach you: “If this happens, here’s why, and here’s what to do.”
And if you still can’t figure it out?
You can ask us.
That’s the difference between watching another pasta video and actually learning how to make pasta with confidence.
WHAT OUR PASTATARIANS SAY
followed the tips, YAY IT WORKED!!!!! 😍 Thank you so much Vallì for helping me work on this until I got it right!
I love how the video lesson are slowed down so you can easily see how the pasta gets shaped an try easily at home because they give you clear instructions too.
It's so much fun cooking live with you both! Every pasta dish we make it so tasty!
Valli and Dave, it was great to do the cook-along with you. Here is a picture of our attempt. Hopefully with your advice the dough will be less sticky next time ;)
We have attended a similar class run by Jamie Oliver but cooking with Valli was far superior in much.
Valli & Dave have realized here a course really accessible to all levels of cooking. We have become pasta professionals.
this is for you if...
- You love homemade pasta but still sometimes feel like you’re guessing.
- You’ve followed recipes that worked once and mysteriously failed the next time.
- You want to understand dough rather than blindly follow measurements.
- You want someone to ask when something goes wrong.
- You want to go beyond fettuccine and ravioli and discover the incredible variety of authentic Italian pasta.
And most importantly...
YOU WANT TO STOP GUESSING AND START UNDERSTANDING YOUR PASTA.
VALLI' & DAVE | WE ARE PASTATARIANS
about us
We make pasta.
We teach pasta.
We eat pasta.
Every single day.
From our home in Verona, Italy, we’ve taught more than 5,000 people from around the world how to make pasta from scratch, even when they had no previous experience, very little time, limited space or no fancy equipment.
We created the Pastatarian Club because we wanted to give you something that a recipe alone never can: someone beside you when things don’t go according to plan.
why we created the club
We created the Pastatarian Club because we wanted to give you something that a recipe alone never can: someone beside you when things don’t go according to plan.
Everywhere you look, people show you how beautiful homemade pasta should be. But very few show you what it actually takes to get there, or what to do when your dough is too sticky, too dry, starts cracking, or simply doesn't turn out the way you expected.
That's why we created the Pastatarian Club.
This is the place where you'll truly learn how to make authentic Italian homemade pasta by putting your hands in the flour, experimenting, making mistakes, understanding what went wrong and learning how to fix it, with us always by your side.
Because making mistakes isn't failing. It's part of learning how to make great homemade pasta in no time.
And while you grow, the Club grows with you.
With 120+ resources already available and at least 10 new resources added every month, there will always be a new shape to discover, a new technique to master and something new to learn.
