Welcome to Castellina in Chianti, a small village with Etruscan origins nestled amongst the Chianti hills. We live in a charming Tuscan farmhouse, immersed in nature and surrounded by local flora and fauna. Here, among vineyards that produce the acclaimed Gallo Nero, I divide my time between two passions: cooking and horses.
The cooking course I propose is an immersive experience in Tuscan culinary traditions. Together we will prepare two classic recipes: fresh pasta and tiramisu. You'll learn how to create pasta from scratch, using only simple, fresh ingredients. Then, we'll dedicate ourselves to creating an authentic tiramisu, the quintessential Italian dessert, which skillfully combines the flavors of coffee, mascarpone, and ladyfingers.
