4 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

Discover the secrets of authentic Italian home cooking and learn how to prepare one of the most beloved dishes of our culinary tradition: trofie al pesto. During this hands-on class, I will guide you step by step through the process of making fresh pasta from scratch and preparing traditional pesto using the classic mortar and pestle, just as it has been done for generations.

But the experience doesn’t end there. Together, we will also make a crostata, a simple yet delicious Italian tart, using a recipe passed down to me by my father. It is a personal and meaningful part of the class, giving you the chance to discover not only Italian flavors, but also the family traditions behind them.

Once the cooking is finished, you will have the pleasure of sitting down to enjoy everything you have prepared, accompanied by excellent wine, in the warm and welcoming atmosphere of my home.
