Your experience
I am Cristina, Cesarina Bolognese DOC, and I am waiting for you at my home to spend an evening discovering Smeraldini, the ancestors of tortellini. Their history is rooted in the gastronomic traditions of the province of Bologna.
Together, we will discover the secrets and tricks of preparing this ancient dish, handed down from my grandmother, who came from a village in the Apennines of Modena. Instead of the classic tortellino in broth, she prepared a slightly larger one, with a more flavorful filling and topped with Parmesan cream, to introduce us to different flavors.
After the course, we will taste the Smeraldini, accompanying them with a good glass of wine. It will be a unique opportunity to share an evening and meet new people. I look forward to seeing you!

- It was a fantastic experience, one of the highlights of our holiday. Christina and her husband were amazing hosts and we learned so much from them. Highly recommended
- Io, le mie amiche e mia mamma abbiamo avuto la fortuna di cucinare insieme a Cristina nella sua bella casa. E in quell'occasione abbiamo scoperto che il tortellino perfetto non è solo frutto di una ricetta e di mani sapienti che lo preparano, il tortellino perfetto è fatto di atmosfera, di simpatia, di calore e di chiacchiere. Grazie Cristina per la bella esperienza e per averci trasmesso il dimenticato piacere del FARE ... Menzione speciale per il marito di Cristina, Enrico, che dovrebbe essere inserito sempre nel pacchetto cesarine ... divertente, pieno di verve e sempre sul pezzo!
- Cristina was great. She was full of information as we walked through city center and described each of the market venders we made purchases from. Cooking class was so much fun and the food was great. We had a wonderful day.
- authentic and genuine experience, full of conviviality and quality!
- What a fantastic experience! Cristina was an amazing host, knowledgeable and passionate about her cooking. She was a patient and encouraging teacher. She helped me and my daughter feel very comfortable and welcome. I am excited to try the recipes at home!

My two grandmothers were amazing cooks and I loved being with them and admiring them while preparing their specialties. Slowly I enriched, for my great passion, my menus becoming the reference for my large family at every dinner of great occasions."
