Paola Maria
Spoken languages: Italian and English
Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
- Friselle (traditional bread)
- Orecchiette and Cavatelli (traditional handmade pasta shapes)
- Tiramisu
Come experience an authentic day at the masseria, amidst the scents of the countryside and the warmth of a family kitchen.
I will welcome you in my home, an old masseria nestled among centuries-old olive trees and dry stone walls, where time slows down and every recipe tells a story. During this experience we will prepare friselle together, to be seasoned with ingredients that are essential but rich in flavor and tradition. We will then learn fresh pasta. You will learn how to make orecchiette and cavatelli, to be enjoyed with a freshly prepared sauce, using what the garden and the season offer us. Finally, we will end on a sweet note with tiramisu, which we will prepare together following the recipe at home. Between dough and laughter, we will share stories, scents and ancient gestures.

- We had an absolutely wonderful time. It was an unmatched experience that provided an authentic glimpse of Italian culture. The family was not only accommodating but incredibly nice and welcoming. We learned, enjoyed delicious food, and will never forget this opportunity. We are grateful that they offered up their home and cannot recommend this class enough. Take it. More than once.
- What a wonderful day we had cooking and spending time with Paola and her daughter. The farmhouse and surrounding area was beautiful with the fresh grown vegetables and fruit in their backyard. As we only speak English and Paola only speaks Italian having her daughter there was great to interpret. Love of food and cooking fresh produce needs no interpretation and my daughters and I were in our element. Thank you so much for sharing your house and experience we enjoyed the lunch together. Fresh pasta orriechetti with homemade pesto and pomodoro sauces so simple yet so delicious. Followed by the Tiramisu which we all enjoyed eating as much as making. Good luck with the future the whole concept is a great recipe for success. Love to "Milk" aka Latte
