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

Private Experience
Your experience

    Welcome to Gignod, a picturesque village in the beautiful Aosta Valley. I invite you to immerse yourself in local culinary traditions with me, your Cesarina. During this experience, you will discover the secrets of three typical Aosta Valley recipes, prepared with fresh, quality ingredients from our beautiful region.

    We will begin our culinary adventure with a warm welcome in my rustic kitchen, where I will guide you step by step through the preparation of traditional dishes. Each recipe tells a story and reflects the cultural richness of the Aosta Valley, and together we will explore techniques and tricks to create authentic and flavorful dishes. After cooking together, we will move to my cozy dining room, where we will enjoy the fruits of our labor.

    We had such a lovely experience with Alessia, her daughter and precious grandchild. We had the most delicious food, desert and wine, but the best is how at home we felt. Cooking and then having lunch with them like we knew them forever was an experience we will never forget. This is definitely something unique and worth doing. How many times do you get to spend time with strangers eating amazing food and feel like you belong right there? Grazie Mille! C&V Corona

    Wonderful experience. Alice was kind and shared the areas food and her cooking skills. Highly recommend if you want a traditional meal in an Italian home. Thank you for sharing your home with us. Kellie, Ward, Jordan and Cory.

    We have had the best time cooking pasta and tiramisu in Alessia's beautiful home! It was authentic, kind, full of joy, and generous. The food was incredible, and it was so interesting to learn about the culture, traditions, do's and don'ts. She has a real passion, and that makes for an amazing experience. Every food was carefully selected and we learned about their origins. We learned a lot! I can't recommend it enough, and I will definitely be back when I have friends visiting Italy. We did pasta and tiramisu, but I definitely will do the favo soup next time!

    Alessia was a wonderful host. The food was delicious and she told me about the local customs and traditions. She made me feel like home. I highly recommend this experience to all the people who want to find out more about the food and culture of Valle d'Aosta.

    Thank you to Alessia for this wonderful experience. Her warm welcome allowed us to learn how to make real Italian pasta and tiramisu. This cooking experience in a local home and sharing a meal with her family were truly amazing. I highly recommend her; she is an exceptional woman who has a lot to tell and teach, in addition to offering an excellent tasting of her locally produced wine.

    Cesarina from 2020Location: Variney Chez Roncoz (AO)    Languages: Italian, English, French
    I’m Alessia, a true Cesarina from the Aosta Valley, and I welcome my guests into an old house I’ve renovated, located in a mountain village—Gignod—in the Grand San Bernardo Valley, just a few minutes from Aosta. I love poor cuisine, especially traditional dishes. I’m a simple person, and I live a life marked by the seasons, divided between work in the vineyard and in the mountains. I’m waiting for you for a dip into the past and into tradition!
