What to expect

Guided by our local chef, you will learn how to prepare fresh gnocchi from scratch, discovering the techniques behind their soft texture and perfect shape. Depending on the season, the recipe may vary, following the Italian tradition of cooking with what is fresh, local, and at its best.

You will also prepare gnudi, one of Tuscany’s most delicious hidden gems. These delicate ricotta-and-spinach dumplings, whose name means “naked,” are the rustic and elegant expression of Tuscan cuisine — simple, authentic, and deeply connected to the land.

Throughout the class, you will hear the story behind these traditional dishes and explore their role in Italian family life and regional cooking culture. Once the preparations are complete, you will sit down with the other guests to enjoy everything you have made, accompanied by a good glass of Tuscan wine.

This experience is perfect for anyone who wants to discover the true flavors of Florence in a warm, welcoming, and authentic atmosphere.
