Shared Experience
Your experience
- Gnocchi with sausage ragù
- Pumpkin gnocchi (homemade pasta) with red chicory
- carrot cake
In our family, for Sunday lunch, "del di' di festa" (holiday day), we always prepared special dishes, and in memory of our grandparents who often enjoyed these hot, steaming, and tasty vegetables in winter, we would like to introduce you to gnocchi and the secrets to making them at their best.
We will make a flavorful sauce with sausage and onion, which goes well with the delicate taste of potatoes.... We will also make a version with pumpkin, and we will try to play with color and flavor. To conclude our experience, we will make a surprising carrot cake whose aroma will take us back to memories of when we were children.

- We thoroughly enjoyed this hands on experience. Dina and her family were very warm and welcoming. If you’ve never made pasta before or if you have this is a great was to see how the locals make it. Their hospitality was above and beyond as they shared their home with us and even their sweaters as the wind picked up and became a little chilly. Their kindness did not go unnoticed. If you’re in Arezzo (or near by) you should book this excursion you won’t be disappointed. Tell them Hi from Helen and Pat!
- This class was our group’s introduction to Tuscany, and we spent the rest of our trip comparing every meal and experience to what we had at Dina’s. Spoiler alert: everything else fell short! Beyond the fun activity and the sublime food and wine, Dina made us feel so welcome and at ease that our time practically flew by. A wonderful chef, a great teacher, and a hostess without parallel. You won’t be disappointed.
- One of our favourite experiences of the trip and an absolute must do! Dina and her family were so kind and welcoming, we felt very at home! Loved it🍝
- If I could give this class 10 stars I would! I have attended other cooking classes in Italy, and this by far was the best. Our small group was invited into the home and we were treated like family. Everything we made was delicious, and Dina even shared goodies that she had made for Easter. I would be happy to recommend this class to anyone who wants to not only learn how to make true Italian dishes, but also to see what it is like to live the Tuscan life!!
- Dina and family were very welcoming and great to learn from. We had a great time and learned a lot. I highly recommend this experience.
