Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Private Experience
Your experience
A lesson on fresh pasta typical of the area, with authentic recipes handed down from my family and the preparation of three distinct types of pasta: orecchiette, sagne torte (also known as ritorte or 'ncannulate') and ravioli. Depending on the season, these delicacies will be accompanied by sauces, sauces and fresh vegetables, creating a delicious and wholesome final dish. It will be an experience not only culinary, but also fun and relaxing, a time of sharing and warmth as among old friends, immersing ourselves in the authentic flavors of Salento.
My name is Francesca and I am a proud mother of three girls, to whom I lovingly dedicate everything I prepare in the kitchen. I await you at my home to share traditions with you.

- Don’t hesitate to book this; I had a fabulous, fun day with Francesca and her daughters in their beautiful home. Not only learning how to make two superb local pastas and tiramisu with the freshest ingredients, I learnt many things about food and life in beautiful Puglia. I will recommend this to all my friends. Thank you.
- EXCELENTE. Francesca nos hizo sentir como en casa, además de ofrecernos una exquisita cena y guia de cocina. Muy recomendable
- “Great cooking class experience near Lecce in a private home. Very good recipe and pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended!”
- This was a wonderful experience for my wife and I. Francesca is an excellent teacher and provided a fun and authentic Italian cooking class in her own home. She was beautifully supported by her daughter and we cooked 3 main dishes plus a desert. We also got to take away the recipes. Many thanks for a very enjoyable day. Highly recommend,
- This was my favourite PUGLIA EXPERIENCE! Francesco and Francesca welcomed us with open arms in their home. Their hospitality has really warmed our hearts and made our trip to Italy worth wild! We were welcomed with some homemade focaccia, AMAZING burratta, wine and They have spent the night showing us how to make orecchiette by hand. We then ate the orecchiette and I must say they were the best I have ever had! We were pleasantly surprised by the most beautiful homemade strawberry tart made by Francesca. This was a delicious and heart warming experience. I highly recommend!

Cesarina from 2020Location: Lecce Languages: Italian, English, French, Spanish"For me, being in front of the stove is really a pleasure, which I often share with our friends. Pleasure in preparing something genuine that often takes us back to the kitchens of our grandmothers, crowded with relatives, especially during the holidays. Our territory is rich in poor but exceptional products, which I like to serve in the simplest way possible, precisely to enhance them. "
