- Ravioli
- Cappelletti
- Quadrucci
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.

- Today we took part in a pasta workshop at the home of the lovely and cheerful Luisa. It was very relaxing and fun. And now we know the secret to making pasta: it's simpler than you think! ;) Thank you, dear Luisa, for your enthusiasm and your hospitality.
- The cooking class takes place in her own kitchen, which creates a warm and homely atmosphere. Luisa explains step-by-step how to make a delicious pasta, making everything easy to follow. She speaks enthusiastically not only about the cooking and the ingredients, but also about the surrounding environment and culture. There are plenty of opportunities to ask questions. Afterwards, we enjoyed a cozy meal together, accompanied by a nice glass of wine. A relaxed, personal, and tasty experience that is definitely recommended!
- Luisa is a teacher of life. She teaches with great dedication and welcomed us into her kitchen with the typical warmth of a mother. We had fun and learned a lot. A unique and unforgettable experience.
- On August 18th, we took a fresh pasta class with Luisa Ghetti (Luvi), and it was simply fantastic. We completed the entire cycle: transforming flour and eggs into dough, kneading, preparing, cutting, and best of all, sitting at the table and eating the result of our work. You could have finished with a nice Tuscan wine, but since I was driving, water was enough. The conversation flowed wonderfully, about plants, our lives, and a little bit of everything. It was an incredible experience in a dream kitchen, where we felt like we were living a true Italian moment in the heart of Tuscany. We loved meeting Luisa and learning that she is involved in numerous incredible activities, such as writing books. Thank you so much, Luisa.
- Absolutely fantastic, beyond our expectations. Luisa was amazing, so kind, so nice to get to know and chat with, and we learned so mix about pasta, Italy, and the culture. Not to mention the food we made was incredible and seasoned beautifully with herbs from her own garden! We can’t wait to go home and make pasta again! Grazie Luisa!!

Cesarina from 2022Location: Pistoia (PT) 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."
