Cooking class with 1 fresh pasta recipe

Private Experience
Your experience
  • Orecchiette and sweet ravioli with ragù of the holidays
  • Dirty Mouth

In this cooking class, we will learn how to make orecchiette and calzoni dolci, a typical dish from Matera, usually prepared during Carnival.

In the past, Carnival ragù had to be really heavy: in many recipes, lard was also added. In fact, it was the last chance to enjoy a good meal with the meat from the pig slaughtered that winter, before the fasting of Lent. In this course, you will learn all the secrets of this recipe and at the end, we will taste what we have prepared together with an excellent local wine.

My partner and I had a wonderful time with Anna Maria learning how to make fresh pasta! Anna Maria was warm and welcoming. She was also great with our young daughter! We both enjoyed experiencing her passion for food and eating a delicious supper! We would highly recommend one of her classes - such an interesting, fun and tasty way to explore Matera!

Cesarina from 2018Location: Matera (MT)    Languages: Italian and English
Visiting Matera, walking around or just admiring the Sassi and breathtaking views, is an unforgettable experience. UNESCO has honored the city by recognizing it as a World Heritage site and it could not otherwise, judging by the amazed reactions caused by the Sassi, the cathedral, the numerous rupestrian churches, the traces of a monasticism come from afar, the places of faith and pilgrimage, and the beautiful scenic nature. Moreover, on the occasion of its prestigious nomination as the European Capital of Culture in 2019, it has become a constellation of events and is preparing to welcome artists and tourists from all over the world. Materana cuisine, which consists of rustic country dishes prepared with locally produced products, are to be discovered. My cooking is also something to be discovered. I love organizing dinners and parties and also cater events, such as exhibitions or inaugurations. I enjoy meeting people and it is for this reason that I have decided to become a Cesarina and create memorable culinary experiences for my guests.
