Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina

Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Traditional fried meatballs or aubergine mini-pizzas
  • Handmade fresh pasta made from durum wheat semolina: orecchiette or cavatelli
  • Mum’s tiramisu

Opening the doors of my home brings me particular joy. I look forward to welcoming you as friends and sharing with you the flavours and traditions of my family and this region.

Together we’ll prepare a small starter – fried meatballs just like my mum used to make, or delicious aubergine mini-pizzas – before getting our hands dirty and making fresh pasta, strictly using durum wheat semolina, such as orecchiette or cavatelli. We’ll finish on a sweet note with my mum’s tiramisu, a recipe close to my heart that has already won over many guests, some of whom have told me they’ve never tasted one quite as good! We’ll cook using fresh, local ingredients, carefully selected from small local traders, because I believe that cooking is also a way of supporting our community.

This was a fantastic experience. Filament and her daughter were a great team. They welcomed us warmly. Everything was ready to prepare a delicious meal. Their home was the perfect setting and we saw a beautiful sunset from their outdoor patio; I highly recommend this experience. It is one of the highlights of our trip.

We had an amazing cooking class / experience. I am so glad I did not chose one of those large classes inside some building. This class felt more like visiting old friends. Warm and kind. We learned more than what I signed up for. Highly recommend a class with Filomena (Cesarine). Would love to do it again and again.

Cesarina from 2025Location: Matera (MT)    Languages: Italian and English
In my kitchen, I use only top-quality ingredients, carefully chosen from local producers, and prepared with attention, using the "star" ingredient—our extra virgin olive oil, produced with passion and dedication. I don’t have a single dish that represents me because every day of the year brings a different specialty, created based on the seasonal availability of ingredients and what’s fresh at the moment. The one ingredient that never misses is love—the love I put into preparing and serving each dish, to offer an authentic and unforgettable experience.
