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.

- Monica was a joy to do the cooking class with, we both had a wonderful time. Extremely kind, helpful, and nurtured us along the way to what was a delicious couple of dishes! The food was wonderful, the company was great, and we'd highly recommend to anyone considering :)
- Monica is amazing the experience from start to finish was the best! The food, the teacher, the laughter would do it again in a minute!
- We had so much fun cooking with Monica! Her home is lovely and Monica was so warm, welcoming, and fun! We made tiramisu, a Parmesan bowl and zucchini appetizer and homemade ravioli. Everything was absolutely delicious! Monica took her time to explain everything to us and made sure that we were preparing everything ourselves , with her guidance. I have already made the appetizer for my family and ordered a pasta machine and ravioli mold for our homemade ravioli. She has inspired us!!! My husband and I both agree that our cooking class with Monica was one of the best evenings of our trip!!!
- Abbiamo scelto il corso di pasta fresca ed è stata una bellissima esperienza: dalla casa meravigliosa in cui siamo stati accolti alla piacevole conversazione ci siamo sentiti come tra amici. Monica è davvero una host di classe e allo stesso tempo alla mano, disponibile a insegnare e a condividere i suoi preziosi trucchi in cucina.
- This was an amazing experience. We made parmesan baskets with zucchini and herbs, cheese and Swiss chard ravioli, and tiramisu. Monica was so gracious with our family of 6 - both teaching us proper cooking techniques and also teaching us about Como. Highly recommend this experience!

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.”
