Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
Italian cuisine has many ravioli recipes,they are my passion and I have experimented with many versions of this dish.
We will prepare three recipes , starting from the same scratch, but in three different colors. Three different fillings will turn ravioli into a delicate appetizer, a tasty first course and finally an original dessert. Appetizer: Green ravioli filled with ricotta and lemon, dressed in tuna sauce. First course: Ravioli prosciutto*and Robiola cheese with Parmesan, butter and sage. Dessert : Giant Sweet Cocoa ravioli with caramelized pears or berry coulisse. Bread or Bruschetta, one bottle of wine, water and coffee complete the experience.
*If you're vegetarian, let me know when you book: we'll make Swiss chards Ravioli instead, a typical recipe from my area, Lake Como.

- This was the highlight of our trip so far. Monica was such a gracious host. Welcomed us into her beautiful home like we were family. My husband and I loved making this memory together. Monica taught us how to make ravioli, fettuccine and Tiramisu. All three were so delicious. If you visit Como then visiting Monica is a must!!!
- My daughter and I had a wonderful time making two types of pasta and tiramisu. Monica was a gracious hostess. We enjoyed her company. I would highly recommend this experience.
- Wow this was the highlight of our trip/Honeymoon in Como! We were so surprised by how intimate this whole experience was! It felt like we were invited over for a private dinner with friends! Monica was so welcoming and the best hostess + instructor. She has a passion for cooking and creating the most memorable experiences. We enjoyed our class so much as well as having a fun and wonderful cooking class! We cannot wait to share what we’ve learned with our friends + family back home. Thank you Monica for everything! Truly unforgettable!
- Monica was very welcoming and did a great job teaching my husband and I how to make pasta, parmesan Cups and tiramisu. A enjoyable, relaxing, delicious meal
- Monica’s home is about a 10-minute walk from the lake and easy to get to. Monica provided a wam welcome and a cold drink before we started on what was a very informative, authentic and incredibly enjoyable evening. We had a beautiful bresaola starter, followed by some bruschetta with two cheese accompaniments prepared by Monica by way of intros. There were various drink options too! We then got down to the hard work of preparing our meals - a wonderful ravioli, a flavoursome fettuccine ragu and followed by a filling tiramisu. Nothing like we have eaten before - again very authentic, beautifully presented and tasted exquisite. Really enjoyed Monica’s teachings, her company and her unique home style. We would highly recommend. Grazie Mille Monica xx

Cesarina from 2020Location: Como Languages: English, Spanish, Italian“I love to write, and to read, in fact, books fill my house. I am mindful of the quality of food; I like to cook what I eat; and share the pleasure of the table with other people, friends, and guests. I am involved in the recovery of food surpluses for social solidarity purposes with the Food Bank of Lombardy Onlus in Como, where I live. I try to hand down recipes that are simple, and easy to learn by everyone, and that are connected as much as possible to the tradition of the Larian territory.”
