Genny
Spoken languages: Italian and English
Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Starting with 0-km products, grown in our garden, we will bring to the table the flavors of the Tuscan peasant tradition.
We will prepare bruschetta with tomatoes, seasoned with excellent Tuscan olive oil, accompanied by samples of good pecorino cheese from our lands. We will continue with making strictly handmade tagliatelle topped with aglione (typical Sienese seasoning) or Tuscan meat sauce. After that we will prepare gnudi (typical Tuscan pasta) au gratin in the oven and finally we will go to prepare a tasty and unfailing tiramisu. It will be an experience to be fully enjoyed, possibly on our terrace overlooking the hills and the Crete Senesi, with the magnificent backdrop of Siena. All this will be accompanied a pleasant company.

- Cesarina Genny was amazing! She and her family were so welcoming and kind. They really wanted us to feel comfortable and to feel at home. We made pasta by hand, using the same base for both ravioli and fettucini. We also made a phenomenal tiramisu. Genny explained each step in detail and helped us when we needed it. She kindly took over when we had difficulties — it made us smile! She shared how they make these dishes for Christmas and Easter, which inspired my wife and me to carry on this tradition in our own home. We plan to use the recipes she gave us to surprise our friends with a meal made from scratch. This experience was special, and we are so grateful for the time we spent with Genny and her family.
- The cooking demo Genny provided for us was amazing! She was gracious and I learned a lot about making pasta from scratch. She was such a wonderful hostess and teacher and her home was lovely. I would recommend the Cesarine experience with Genny to anyone! We has so much fun.
- A wonderful experience with Genny and her family. We made fresh ravioli and tagliatelle and cake in her home. I loved exchanging stories, learning the techniques, visiting the garden and connecting with local life. Such a special experience!
- Our cooking class with Genny was one of the highlights of our trip! Not only was Genny an amazing and patient teacher, she was also so sweet. We learned how to make delicious pasta and tiramisu, which we thoroughly enjoyed! The added bonus of the experience was that we met Genny's family, who all joined us for lunch. This made the experience even more special for us. They even put birthday candles on our tiramisu as we were celebrating my husband's birthday. We cannot recommend this experience enough. Genny went above and beyond.
- Our cooking class with Genny and her family was wonderful! We cooked 2 different pastas and made tiramisu which was delicious. Her husband and daughter joined us and set a beautiful table with meats, cheeses, vegetables etc. we had wine and Prosecco which added to the experience. They spoke pretty good English so conversation flowed. I would highly recommend!
