Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Focaccia from Bari, mozzarella, broad bean and chicory croutons
  • Orecchiette (homemade pasta) with turnip tops
  • Anchovies in a cake pan with a side dish of raw vegetables
  • Sporcamuss (typical dessert from Bari)

In this menu I have chosen to have you taste some recipes that will bring you closer to my city, the charming capital of the wonderful Puglia. Dried broad beans, cooked to a velvety puree, are accompanied by boiled chicory and generously dressed with Puglia's exceptional raw olive oil. The renowned Bari focaccia, prepared in house, is enjoyed with fresh mozzarella. Who doesn't know orecchiette? I prepare them following my mother's tradition, and they are truly delicious. The anchovies, locally caught and rich in omega three, are not only healthy but also incredibly flavorful. I can easily prepare vegan and vegetarian alternatives. I warmly await you in my home.

Cooking with Sara in her home was a fantastic experience. She shared her knowledge of Italian cooking and the secrets and techniques for success. She was well organized, the sauces for the pastas we made were done in advance. We totally expect we’ll be able to recreate what we prepared with her when we return home. Her cooking was done with love and we were able to share the time with her daughter who assisted her and were joined for lunch by her daughter’s lovely husband and their son. Truly a highlight of our time in Puglia.

It was an amazing experience that surpassed our expectations. Sara and her family went above and beyond to make our pasta class a memorable occasion. Their hospitality was inviting and made us feel like we were part of their family. The food menu was delicious and we actually learned a lot. Unforgettable experience that I would recommend. A true Barese experience.

We really enjoyed our dinner experience with Sara and her family. She was extremely well prepared and very experienced in the kitchen. Her daughter and son-in-law joined us too. We appreciated getting to experience “real life” in Italy in a normal person’s home. This is probably the highlight of our trip to Italy and we recommend it to anyone who wants a glimpse into regular Italian life and wants to spend time with wonderful people. They even sent us home with our leftovers and lots of pictures of the evening.

Sara and her family is super friendly. Her homemade food is excellent! The Italian fish pie is definitely very new to me and it's delicious. I also love our conversations during dinner. Highly recommend!

Fun class! Sara was a wonderful and informative chef/host. We learned to make troccoli and cavatelli, then enjoyed good company eating up our freshly made pasta.

I love cooking traditional Apulian dishes with recipes that have been handed down to me from my mother. I also like to experiment with new recipes and my family members are always ready to savor my delicacies. I like having friends and family at home and I always make them feel at home.
