Shared Experience
Your experience

    Panzerotto appeals to young and old alike, fried or baked. It has always been one of the most beloved Apulian street foods in the world. I will reveal the secrets of my dough, handed down from generations: tomato, mozzarella and fresh oregano, a volcano of happiness for your palates. We will prepare the classic panzerotto and have fun creating a variety of fillings with traditional Apulian ingredients, with a super stringy heart. Come and experience an unmistakable aroma and taste, Cesarina Piera is waiting for you!

    A Truly Homely and Unforgettable Experience! This cooking class in Lecce was an absolute highlight of our trip to Italy! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed like family into a warm, inviting home. The entire experience felt authentic and relaxed — not just a class, but a genuine slice of Italian life.

    Highly recommend Pierangela and her cooking class! We had a wonderful evening cooking two types of pasta and a tiramisu. Pierangela and her family warmly welcomed us into their home for the class and provided us with some of their family wine and delicious antipasti. We will definitely be using the recipes from our class to cook back home. A wonderful experience with lovely hosts!

    Pierangela and her family were lovely hosts! They made us feel right at home and were all incredibly friendly. We made a beautiful tirimasu, and two types of pasta. Pierangela was patient when teaching us how to make pasta and let us take plenty of photos of the process. She then made us a two pasta sauces to match with the added surprise of some antipasti. I Highly recommend taking this cooking class for an authentic home cooked Italian meal. We will definitely be making these pastas at home!

    Hello, my name is Pierangela, and cooking for others is one of the things that brings me the most joy. Since I was a child, I've wanted to experiment with the traditional recipes of my hometown. I was born in Gravina in Puglia, a town on the border between Puglia and Basilicata, boasting an incredibly rich culinary tradition. It's precisely this richness that drives me to cook: so many recipes, so many flavors, unique and unmistakable, exclusively ours. Panzerotti, focaccia barese, Pan cotto alla gravinese, U' ruccl (typical San Giuseppe focaccia), sweet ricotta calzones with pork ragu, orecchiette al tegamino, cavatelli, baked finocchietti, cartellate, and much more—these are the typical flavors of my homeland. For the past 12 years, I have been living in Lecce, in the wonderful and spectacular Salento, and from the beginning, I started to savor and create dishes typical of the Salento tradition, including the famous Pezzetti di cavallo, Ciceri e tria, Pittule, Pizzo, Frise, and the unmissable pasticciotto.
