- Maltagliati (homemade pasta) and beans

Welcome to my kitchen, where I invite you to discover together three delicious pasta recipes from our tradition. We will begin with the preparation of gnocchi, a fun culinary journey that will lead us to make pasta e fagioli, a pleasure that is always a unique convivial experience at my parents' house. We will joyfully taste everything we have prepared, enjoying the meal on a lovely veranda overlooking my garden, all accompanied by an excellent glass of red wine.

- Veronica was amazing. We had the best time. Definitely the highlight of our trip!
- We had such a lovely time! Veronica was hospitable, kind, and a wonderful teacher. We loved learning to make pasta!
- Amazing! I can’t say enough about this experience. When I booked this, I didn’t realize we would have the opportunity to go to Veronica & Luca’s home and cook in her kitchen! She had a great set up and was a clear and patient teacher. She even got my husband excited about making pasta and by the end of the class, he was rolling and hand cutting his own tagliatelle! We had 2 teenagers with us and Veronica and Luca were great with them. Besides the amazing food, we had a terrific conversation - this was truly a cultural exchange and I feel like we learned more about Italy here in a few hours than on any tour! We are inspired to make homemade pasta when we get home! Thank you so much Veronica and Luca!
- We had to spend a lot of time and money to get to the class due to bad planning on my part. Nonetheless, it was worth the time and effort. Veronica was amazing - so helpful, warm, fun, and inviting. We spent 2 weeks in Europe and did a lot of different excursions - this was our favorite one.
- Veronica - and her husband! - were excellent hosts. The kitchen space was amazing and she had everything ready to go when we arrived. We made a pasta (I thought it was two pasta types, but it was one and Veronica had made two sauces :), and we made tiramisu. All delicious! Veronica is meticulous with every instruction and detail, but she made the entire evening SO fun! They are a charming couple, and Veronica clearly loves what she does and has a passion for delicious food. We learned so much from her! We would highly recommend this cooking class!

Cesarina from 2023Location: Como Languages: Italian, English, FrenchMy cuisine is above all typical, traditional. I was born and raised in Como but my parents are from southern Italy, so my cuisine is also very Mediterranean. I like to range from fresh pasta (cooking baked pasta in particular), to fish dishes, long-cooked meats such as braised meats and I love dedicating myself to desserts. Another great passion of mine is leavened products, particularly pizza and bread.
