Your experience
I am Elena, Cesarina from Modena, and I await you at my home to spend an evening discovering fried gnocco, with its soft golden dough and a symbol of our tradition.
Together, we will discover the secrets and tricks of preparing this dish. Its origin seems to date back even to a historical period before the fall of the Western Roman Empire, linked to the arrival of the Lombards in Italy.
After the class we will taste the fried gnocchi, pairing them with a good glass of wine. It will be a unique opportunity to share an evening together and meet new people. I look forward to seeing you!

- Elena was an excellent guide. It was wonderful to learn pasta making and get an idea of her slice of life in Modena.
- Absolutely amazing experience. Elena was so fantastic, welcoming, funny and knowledgeable (of course). We made risotto, tortellina, and sour cherry pie with a tasting of family balsamic vinegars on regiano cheese. All delicious. Beautiful home. Strongly recommend. Please thank Elena.
- Nous avons fortement apprécié notre expérience chez Elena, qui a pris le temps de bien nous expliquer les recettes et de s'assurer que nous ayons les bonnes techniques! Le goût des repas cuisinés étaient incroyables et Elena était très généreuse en nous partageant son vinaigre balsamique familial! Nous recommandons fortement! Merci Elena!
- It was such a fun experience and I learnt a lot about traditional cuisine in Modena and the region! Elena was a fantastic host and I even got to practice my Italian. I would recommend for future visitors!!
- Our time with Elena was great! She showed us simple but amazing recipes I'm excited to cook at home. She also let us taste some of her family's own Balsamic vinegar, which was really tasty, just like the wine and the parmiggiano reggiano she gave us. I would very much recommend booking a cooking lesson with her, as she has very good advice and is really passionate about food.

Cesarina from 2022Location: Modena Languages: Italian and English"Although my cuisine is traditional, I like to offer family and friends also renewed traditional family dishes such as risotto pulled with parmesan crust broth and embellished with balsamic vinegar, tortellini instead I prepare them with a traditional recipe in capon broth . Homemade breads amuse me a lot but also the vegetable voulevant that my grandmothers used to make I do well. The meat deserves a separate discussion because it varies a lot from the more traditional to game. To conclude the desserts, pies, strudels and cakes by the spoon are the ones I prepare most often. Finally, I like to combine my dishes with the most suitable waters, being hydrosomellier ".
