Your experience

    Before we begin the cooking class, we will take a tour together among the plants in my garden to hand-pick the vegetables and herbs we will use: tomatoes the color of sunset, zucchini shining like buds, eggplant grown under the complicit light of the full moon. Then, in the kitchen, the magic continues. Together we will prepare: savory pies scented with medicinal herbs, risotto with freshly picked nettles, parmigiana with giant eggplants,the seven-leaf soup, golden omelets with fresh eggs. And to close on a sweet note, my gluten-free carrot and almond cake-which I affectionately call "Heart of the Garden"-served with an ever-present Italian-style coffee. From harvest to table: this is where the real magic is born.

    Siamo stati molto ben accolti da Simona, molto simpatica e allegra. La lezione è stata davvero interessante, abbiamo imparato a fare i tortelli: buonissimo e il tutto accompagnato con vino bianco locale. È stata una giornata molto gradevole! Complimenti Simona, bravissima! Grazie mille Odete e Salvador di Brasile 🍾🍾🍾🌺🌺

    Each dish is a story, a deep connection to my land and the traditions I carry in my heart. My cooking is made of memory and passion, of authentic ingredients that turn every bite into a journey through genuine flavors and childhood memories.
     
     The marubini, small parcels of pasta filled with meat, evoke the warmth of my home and the love with which my mother used to prepare them. Fresh pasta is a hymn to nature: tagliatelle, lasagna, and tortelli stuffed with borage, pumpkin, or wild herbs tell stories of forests and fields, where wild herbs grow spontaneously, giving off unmistakable fragrances.
     
     Polenta with rabbit is the dish of family and tradition, simple and comforting, where the softness of the polenta blends with the delicacy of the meat. Then there's cotechino with lentils, a classic of the holidays, perfectly balanced with homemade mustard, an explosion of sweetness and spiciness that connects the past with the present.
     
     There are also fresh and light dishes, like zucchini lasagna with ricotta, perfect for summer, or fried stuffed zucchini flowers, picked at dawn to preserve their delicacy and transformed into a crispy delight. There's wild hop frittata, which tastes of the countryside and simplicity, and nettle risotto, a tribute to the wild nature that every year gifts me with the pleasure of foraging.
     
     Even in desserts, I celebrate the beauty of the land: shortcrust pastry with wild fruits tells the generosity of nature.
     
     The family garden is my secret ally: every day it provides me with fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs. My recipes change with the seasons, following the gifts of the earth, and are designed to be enjoyed by everyone, especially those intolerant to gluten. Because every dish is not just food, but an experience of authenticity, love for care, and tradition.
