Cooking lesson: learn how to cook Italian recipes with a local Cesarina
There is no best way to make bread but the way that best suits your disposition, your lifestyle.You will only need an electric oven, some utensils and a few basic rules and in a few hours you will taste your own bread.
During this course, suitable for any age, we will make Tuscan schiacciata and thin pizza without yeast.You can do this with me and once in your homes, create and taste your own bread, in just 3 hours. During the class you will be given general information about Italian and foreign baking, you will knead and learn tricks and secrets about doughs, baking, shapes and textures. You will be given handouts with information and recipes for the two breads in the class. At the end you will either enjoy them with me or take them home with you.

- What an unforgettable experience! Our food-making lunch with Luisa in Pistoia was truly the highlight of our trip to Italy. From the moment we stepped into Luisa's warm and inviting home, we felt like part of the family. Luisa's passion for Italian cuisine shone through as she guided us through the art of pasta making, sharing fascinating insights into the history and culture of each dish. It was educational and so much fun. Even our 8-year-old daughter had a blast, getting hands-on with the dough and proudly creating her own pasta. Luisa's patience and enthusiasm made everyone feel comfortable and engaged. The food we prepared together was absolutely delicious, and we left with full hearts and full bellies. If you're looking for an authentic, enriching culinary experience in Pistoia, this is it! Highly recommended.
- My 12-year old daughter and I had an amazing time with Louisa! It was fun to learn old family recipes in someone's home and why Pistoia is home to amazing plant nurseries and the heart of Tuscan landscape design. She was full of knowledge about Pistoia - check out her book "Pistoia and its Soul: Do you know this Tuscan city?" As my daughter said, "This was the BEST pasta we have had here in Italy!"
- Grazie Mille Luisa! We’ve had a great and very authentic experience making pasta with you. Thank you for the warm welcome, the beautiful stories you told us and the delicious pasta (we made ourselves)!
- What a lovely evening - a very personal cooking experience with Luisa in her home. Some great cooking tips and conversation as well!
- If we could give her 10 stars we would! She was gracious fun and amazing to work with. We never felt rushed with our class and made tiramisu and 2 types of pasta. We sat to lunch and had an excellent conversation Would recommend making time for this class!
