Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
In the heart of the Tuscan countryside, in a charming villa with garden, patio, olive grove, and vegetable garden, enjoy a hands-on cooking experience you won’t forget. In a warm and authentic atmosphere, you’ll learn to make iconic Italian dishes: bruschetta with fresh seasonal vegetables from the garden, homemade pasta tossed with classic Roman carbonara (vegetarian option available), and a dessert of your choice – either traditional tiramisu or a rich chocolate treat. A fun, immersive experience for anyone who loves Italian cuisine!

We had an amazing time with Rosanna and her husband! They had the best hospitality and were so welcoming into their home. They treated us like family and taught us amazing recipes. We weren’t the best chefs but they walked us through every step of the way. We can’t recommend Rosanna enough as this was one of the best parts of our trip!

Rosanna was a delight and welcoming! We had the best time with her and Alberto and highly recommend! The cooking class was a great experience but the knowledge and conversation with the two of them was priceless!

Cooking with Rosanna was an incredible experience! We learned so much and enjoyed the process. The lasagna we made was delicious. She and her husband are very friendly! We are looking forward to another one of Rossana’s classes soon.

When your 17 year old son said it was his favorite thing about Italy, you know you’re in the right home making delicious authentic meals with shared recipes to last a lifetime. Thank you Rossana for such a fabulous evening in Lucca!

I prefer simple dishes made with just a few wholesome, seasonal ingredients, often harvested directly from my own vegetable garden and orchard. I love to enhance the authentic flavors of the land using extra virgin olive oil that we produce ourselves. My cooking is rooted in traditional Tuscan cuisine, but I also enjoy experimenting: I create original recipes that I carefully jot down in my personal recipe book, built over time with love and passion.
