  • Tortellini

I am Maria Luisa, Cesarina from Modena, and I await you at my home to spend an evening discovering tortellini, a stuffed pasta that is a symbol of our tradition.

Together, we will learn the secrets and tricks of preparing this dish. Historically, they are thought to have been invented in the 17th century. Their shape is inspired by that of the navel, a detail straight out of a rather colorful legend.

After the class we will taste the tortellini, pairing them with a good glass of wine. It will be a unique opportunity to share an evening together and meet new people. I look forward to seeing you!

E' stata una bellissima esperienza. Tra chiacchere e un bicchiere di lambrusco Maria Luisa ci ha condotto per mano con pazienza insegnandoci l'arte di preparare i tortellini. Consiglio a chiunque voglia imparare l'arte della pasta fatta in casa.

Maria Luisa
Cesarina from 2019Location: Modena (MO)    Languages: Italian and English
Modena is a city rich in tradition, famous throughout the world for good food and passion for the automotive industry. On its hills, you can see castles, fortresses, towers, and medieval villages, testimonies of its history, in a landscape that satisfies mind and spirit. Luisa spent her childhood in grandmother's kitchen, surrounded by the aromas and flavors of peasant cuisine. Every day she smelled the scent of fresh homemade pasta, tigelle, and crescentine, and it was exactly her grandmother who taught her to 'put your hands in the dough’. Our Cesarina lives closer to the historic center, where she hides a real treasure: the old family vinegar factory, which she loves to show her guests.
