My husband and I had a wonderful cooking class. Catia and her husband were very welcoming and patient with me learning how to speak italian. They showed us local pastries and a little bit of the local area since the markets are closed in August. We cooked two types of pasta, and quick and easy to make tiramisu. We also enjoyed delicious aperitifs throughout the experience, that showcased local prosciutto and parmigiana. This is a great experience if you want to chat and enjoy a relaxed cooking class, no stress, just fun!
Thank you so much for hosting us in your space and sharing these recipes with us!

Catia and her husband were so kind to us when they invited us into their beautiful home just outside Parma.
Even though Catia said she wasn't a pro, the food was absolutely delicious. Thank you for welcoming us into your home and good luck on your trip across Europe next year!

Catia, and her daughter, Laura were superb hosts. Theu were very patient with us as we couldn't get a taxi or bus. Although the market didn't have many vendors that day, they made sure we had a special experience walking us around the Ducal Palace and enjoying a cafe and some traditional cookies. We stopped by a local store to get fresh ricotta. That was really interesting. Then back to Catia's where she expertly guided us to make tagliatelle d'erbet and tirimusu. Her husband also joined and showed us a full parma ham. We learned so much and ate even more. A truly wonderful and memorable experience with fun and friendly folks.
