Cooking Courses
Cooking courses are a time to meet and chat around the work table. Pleasant hours spent learning, but also laughing, tasting new foods, sipping good wine and meeting people from all over the world.
​
Almost every day at 10.30 a cooking class of around 4.5 hours starts and takes place with a good welcome coffee while you sip some homemade coffee.
We move to the work table where we begin to make fresh egg pasta, followed by the filling for the "ricotta spinach" ravioli; we continue with the preparation of the "real" carbonara (the veggie version is available for those who don't eat pork or meat in general) which will be the subject of a break together with a good glass of wine (to be honest the wine is unlimited and you can drink as much as you want).
Back at the table we proceed by rolling out the dough (rolling pin and machine), showing you various shapes but mainly making ravioli and tortelli which you will taste with butter from Valtellina and sage from my garden.
​
Occasionally - and only if the group agrees - tiramisu is made instead of carbonara .
​
This is the "basic" course which is held almost every day (14 people max), but you can opt for private courses, at home or in spaces to accommodate large groups, choosing the menu according to your wishes.
​
I also propose a trip to the neighborhood market with tasting of regional products, purchase of ingredients that we will then use at home to cook the desired dishes together
