Shared Experience
Your experience
- Battered vegetables
- Ravioli with lake fish (homemade pasta)
- Local traditional dessert
A cuisine based on traditional recipes but revisited with a modern twist, always using fresh produce. We will pick vegetables from the small garden and fry them in extra virgin olive oil with a rice batter. We will make ravioli with eggs from the chicken coop and prepare the filling with artisan-smoked lake fish, served with parsley sauce, as per tradition. We will add char caviar. To finish we will prepare typical Lake Como cake, with bread, cornmeal, apples, pears and grapes.

- Our private cooking class with Debora and Maddy on Lake Como was one of the most personal experiences of our trip. We came for our anniversary and left feeling like we’d spent the afternoon with friends. This is not a staged class in a rented loft. It’s a real home, real hands in the dough, and two women who clearly love feeding people. They guided us through the recipes at a pace that never felt rushed, explained the “why” behind the steps, and made room for conversation. The food we cooked together was simple in the best way — the kind you want to make again when you get home. What stayed with us wasn’t only the meal. It was the welcome. Debora and Maddy made a private class feel intimate without being stiff, and the lake setting did the rest. Highly recommend Cooking Class Lake Como. Book Debora and Maddy if you can.
- Debora was amazing, more like a new friend than an instructor! Her recipes were fantastic as well. I couldn’t recommend the experience highly enough!
- Thank you to Debora for letting us live such a wonderful experience. We chose her for the menu she proposed: dishes from the Como tradition (the ravioli with lake fish and parsley sauce: fantastic, as was the miascia: a 10 with honors). Debora welcomed us warmly into her beautiful house with a lake view and guided us through a beautiful and engaging culinary experience, explaining simply how to make pasta, a great appetizer and a delicious dessert. All enriched by nutritional information and general cooking tips. Even the aperitif she prepared for us with local specialties and snacks made by her was excellent. It was a pleasure to meet a welcoming and knowledgeable person. We hope to meet again.
- Our food making and cooking experience with Debora was truly amazing. Five stars are not enough to describe how fascinating it was. Debora is kind, authentic and very well knowledgeable about food ingredients. She explained everything clearly while guiding us through the pasta preparation process. We enjoyed some nice aperitifs while chatting about traditions and culture. It was much more than culinary experience and cooking class.
- Debora was awesome! She was a very gracious hostess. The cooking session was so much fun and she was a pleasure to talk to the entire evening. The food turned out delicious and she even sent the recipes to us to make at home. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a fun, enjoyable evening!
