Cooking class: you will learn to prepare a traditional dish with a tasting of the recipe prepared during the course, accompanied by a glass of wine
In a shared experience, other guests may be added, up to the maximum number of people that the host can accommodate. Therefore you may have the opportunity to share your passion for good food and cooking with other people from all over the world!
I will welcome you into my home, inside one of the oldest nurseries in Pistoia. In my kitchen I will teach you how to make egg pasta according to my family's tradition. You will be able to try kneading and rolling out the sheets with a rolling pin or with the small manual Imperia machine.
You will be able to choose from classic formats such as tagliatelle or farfalline or make garganelli (a type of macaroni from the Romagna tradition) or inganna-prit (a kind of mock cappelletti). You will be able to choose at the time whether to enjoy the pasta immediately topped with a Tuscan mascarpone and sausage sauce or take it home with you. The lesson and eventual consumption will be enhanced by a good local Tuscan red wine, printed recipes and numerous tips and anecdotes.

- Luisa was a marvelous teacher. She welcomed us into her home like family. Taught us some amazing bread making techniques and had an amazing lunch with her. Amazing food, teacher, and dogs. Thank you again Luisa!
- Insieme a Luisa abbiamo trascorso un bellissimo pomeriggio…ci ha accolto a casa sua con gentilezza e simpatia e ci ha insegnato i trucchetti per realizzare dei buonissimi piatti della tradizione, che poi abbiamo cotto e assaggiato insieme! E’ stata un’esperienza che consiglio a tutti e fa riscoprire la bellezza della semplicità !Grazie Luisa

- What a wonderful experience cooking with Luisa! So welcoming in her lovely home, patient teaching, fresh herbs from her garden and recipes that we have already made at home!
