I’m Eleonora, your Cesarina from Assisi, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to the heart of the historic center of this beautiful city for a culinary experience that will introduce you to the authentic flavors of our tradition. We’ll start with a welcome aperitif, where you’ll taste a selection of local products, perfect for getting acquainted with the flavors of Umbria. Then, we’ll get straight to work! I’ll teach you how to prepare three classic sauces: the savory ragù, the famous amatriciana, and a fresh sauce with cherry tomatoes, olives, walnuts, and breadcrumbs. Each sauce is a simple yet flavorful recipe, which I’ll guide you through step by step. At the end of the course, we’ll enjoy the dishes we’ve prepared, served with a plate of homemade tagliatelle.

- The class was so much fun. Eleanora was informative, and shared some key points in making sauce. The three of us thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Best of all was the opportunity to eat what was made.
- Eleonora was amazing! My wife and I took the sauce cooking class. It was amazing to learn different authentic recipes (carbonara, Amatriciana, and norcina). It’s a great environment and we were with 4 other people. We got to eat them all and had a bottle of wine as well. Highly recommend!
- Eleonora was spectacular. She was very thorough in her presentation and very encouraging but not afraid to correct our mistakes. Highly recommend
- Eleanora was so nice and patient and she is so professional. We actually learned how to make pasta! We had a lovely time!
- Eleanora was so fantastic. What a lovely lady. We enjoyed her lessons so much. She spent extra time with us. We enjoyed the cheese and wine tasting beforehand as well. I did so much we even purchased wine and olive oil to have sent home. Her grandson’s run the wine, cheese and olive oil store and they are absolutely adorable and knowledgeable.

Where
Eleonora’s Cooking School
Cesarina from 2022Location: Assisi (PG) Languages: Italian and EnglishMy name is Eleonora and I run a cooking school in the heart of Assisi, where I share my greatest passion every day: Umbrian cuisine. It is a welcoming place where you learn by doing, through recipes, techniques, and traditions, in a friendly and convivial atmosphere. The experiences end with a short tasting of the dishes prepared together, because the main goal of the cooking school is to pass on techniques and tips so that each guest can easily recreate the recipes at home. I live and work surrounded by the beauty of Umbria and its produce, which follows the rhythm of the seasons. In my cooking school, I like to share Umbrian culinary traditions with my guests, enhancing local flavors and using fresh ingredients grown in nearby fields.
