Shared Experience
Your experience
I will host you inside the farmhouse located in one of the oldest nurseries in Pistoia. In my kitchen, we will immerse ourselves in the preparation of numerous formats of traditional Italian stuffed pasta. I will share with you the technique for kneading and rolling out egg pasta sheets, using both a rolling pin and a machine. You will have the opportunity to create ravioli of different sizes and cappelletti in a variety of shapes and sizes. We will conclude the experience by making stuffed quadrucci, an ancient and wholesome pasta to be enjoyed in broth. I will provide you with detailed recipe handouts so that you can replicate the experience at home. You will also have the opportunity to taste the fruits of your labor directly with me or take them home.

- I really enjoyed this class at Luisa’s lovely home. She was so sweet and accommodating to my daughter and I, offering a special fish dish since I do not eat meat. There was a special garlic and a goat cheese from the farm too that was delicious. Her directions to make simple homemade pasta was spot on and she even lit a candle with dessert to celebrate my daughter’s 21st birthday. I would highly recommend this class.
- Luvi was such a gracious and welcoming host. I was the only one that evening and she made me feel at home as we chatted about the recipes and the history of each. It was like having dinner with a great friend, over wine and great conversation. I highly recommend Luvi, Cesarine, if you are ever in Florence, Pistoia area. I welcome the day that I return. Thank you Luvi 😊 💓
- Luisa was a wonderful instructor. We enjoyed our experience making many different types of pasta and then enjoying our creations that she prepared for us. She is very engaging, spoke very good English and answered all of our questions. We highly recommend the class!
- Wonderful evening with Louisa in her charming home. Louisa shared her family recipes with us as well as interesting facts about Pistoia. We really enjoyed the food and hospitality and would definitely recommend this experience.

Cesarina from 2022Location: Pistoia Languages: Italian and English"I was born in Romagna, but now after more than 35 years in Pistoia my home is Tuscany. In the green, but a few kilometers from the station and the Piazza del Duomo. I have a creative and curious soul and in the kitchen, through the dishes of the Romagna and Tuscan tradition, I express at best my spirit of welcome. I love to make homemade pasta, bake bread, cook the classic desserts of the tradition."
