Your experience
- Tiramisù
Bologna, a city famous worldwide for its tradition of fresh egg pasta! In this cooking class, we learn to make two types of pasta and dessert. We start with the preparation of the dough, starting from eggs and flour, then proceed with the art of the rolling pin. Once we have our sheet of pasta, we create different shapes: tagliatelle and tortelloni stuffed with ricotta and spinach. Let's discover together the secrets of each recipe and the curiosities about the tools of the trade. At the end of the course, everyone is seated at the table (in the garden during the good season) for a luncheon or dinner featuring fresh pasta, accompanied by excellent local wine, and it concludes with a classic: tiramisu. It will be a day dedicated to home cooking, tradition, and fun!
