Shared Experience
Your experience
I carry on the family tradition with the preparation of typical dishes from the Tuscan Maremma. You will learn how to create Tortelli maremmani with ricotta, spinach, Swiss chard and nutmeg, and "Malfatti," gluten-free gnocchi made with ricotta, spinach and egg. The class will culminate with the making of a delicious "Tiramisu," offering two basic options: with Savoiardi or Pavesini. At the end of the cooking school, we will relax with an aperitif of prosecco and local specialties such as pork and wild boar salami, pecorino cheese, crostini and bruschetta, accompanied by sottoli. During the following lunch, you will have the opportunity to taste excellent Chianti wines from the renowned surrounding wineries. An authentic culinary experience that celebrates the flavors of the Maremma.

- Ilaria was a very knowledgeable host. She was an excellent teacher and gave us very good information about the area. I will definitely recommend her to anyone interested.
- What a once-in-a-lifetime experience! From the warmth of Ilaria and her family, to learning how to cook authentic Italian cuisine, to getting a taste of life in Tuscany, it was top notch across the board. Plus our meal was out of this world. A must-do experience that we will never forget. We really enjoyed the fact that it took place in her families kitchen - it added to the experience!
- Fastastic experience. We had our host Ilaria all to ourselves and she made us feel like family. Took the time to explain each step thoroughly so that we could duplicate the delicious results at home. Ilaria is the best. Highly recommend.
- Ilaria was an incredible host, teacher, and chauffer (she picked us up at the train station, and even drove us all the way back to Siena when our visit ran long and we missed the last train due to the great education and conversation). Ilaria expertly led us through each step of her ravioli and tiramisu recipes, and gave us a great understanding of the local culture. Could not recommend this charming experience more highly.
- Ilaria was a fantastic host, making us feel “at home” from the minute we arrived. We really enjoyed the cooking lesson, with lots of information on local food traditions, as well as many interesting conversations! Lunch was delicious, including aperitivo made by Ilaria, and a glass of local wine. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would totally recommend it.

Ilaria
Cesarina from 2023Location: Rapolano Terme (SI) Languages: Italian, English, German, FrenchMy passion for Italian cuisine, and especially for Tuscan cooking, comes from a love for the flavors of home and for recipes that bring stories and tradition to the table. My dishes reflect my roots and the beauty of the region where I live, the stunning Tuscany. I enjoy experimenting with new combinations, but I also love preparing traditional recipes. Some of my favorites are panzanella, pappa al pomodoro, and pici alle briciole, dishes that I bring to my cooking classes to share with anyone who wants to cook just like in Tuscany. Each lesson is an opportunity to discover the secrets of my kitchen, have fun at the stove, and enjoy dishes full of flavor and history.
