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

Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Piadina (traditional flat bread)
  • Fried pizza
  • Tigelle

I will teach you how to make three types of bread from the Tuscan-Romagnola peasant tradition. They are simple doughs but rich in flavor and different textures. Piadina is known all over the world, but remember that the real thing is made with flour and lard. There is also a fried version and tigelle cooked in a cast-iron mold. During the course, you will be provided with handouts with the recipes and you can taste what you have prepared accompanied by soft cheeses and traditional Italian cold cuts.

What a beautiful individual filled with passion to share family customs and the skills in preparing pasta. Simplistic recipes with great potential and wonderful instruction. We highly recommend this class for embracing the art of preparation, the added knowledge of utilization for multiple presentations, and the warmth of the one-on-one atmosphere.

Excellent experience with Mrs. Luisa. Luisa, very hospitable and kind, guided us step by step in the preparation of some types of pasta and it was a very interesting and pleasant experience. To be repeated, thank you.

Cesarina from 2022Location: Pistoia (PT)    Languages: Italian and English
"I was born in Romagna, but now after more than 35 years in Pistoia my home is Tuscany. In the green, but a few kilometers from the station and the Piazza del Duomo. I have a creative and curious soul and in the kitchen, through the dishes of the Romagna and Tuscan tradition, I express at best my spirit of welcome. I love to make homemade pasta, bake bread, cook the classic desserts of the tradition."
