Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Tagliatelle with sausage, mascarpone and rosemary
  • Cappelletti seasoned with butter and sage
  • Garganelli (maccheroni similar shape) seasoned with vegetables from my garden roni

We will prepare three traditional Italian egg pasta shapes together. I will teach you recipes from my home, which I learned from my grandmother. You will make the dough and roll out the pastry with a rolling pin or with the small manual Imperia machine. I will tell you tricks and secrets for making perfect homemade pasta. Starting with the three recipes you will also learn numerous other formats.

We will taste each pasta together, also preparing three quick and easy toppings that you can also remake at home. I will provide you with handouts of all the recipes accompanied by detailed overseas information.

I really enjoyed this class at Luisa’s lovely home. She was so sweet and accommodating to my daughter and I, offering a special fish dish since I do not eat meat. There was a special garlic and a goat cheese from the farm too that was delicious. Her directions to make simple homemade pasta was spot on and she even lit a candle with dessert to celebrate my daughter’s 21st birthday. I would highly recommend this class.

Luvi was such a gracious and welcoming host. I was the only one that evening and she made me feel at home as we chatted about the recipes and the history of each. It was like having dinner with a great friend, over wine and great conversation. I highly recommend Luvi, Cesarine, if you are ever in Florence, Pistoia area. I welcome the day that I return. Thank you Luvi 😊 💓

Luisa was a wonderful instructor. We enjoyed our experience making many different types of pasta and then enjoying our creations that she prepared for us. She is very engaging, spoke very good English and answered all of our questions. We highly recommend the class!

"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."
