Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
When talking about Salento tradition, one cannot fail to mention homemade pasta.
Since I was a child, my grandmother and my mother taught me what my roots were: simplicity and humility turned from flour and water into a tasty and typical dish of orecchiette and maccheroncini al sugo. The experience I am proposing is really putting your hands in the pasta to learn how to make a typical dish of our tradition with a choice of orecchiette, maccheroncini or sagne ncannulate.

- Merci Lucia pour cette expérience culinaire incroyable ! Tu as partagé tes secrets de cuisine salentine avec tant de passion et de générosité. Les orecchiette, panzerotti et pasticciotti étaient tous delicieux!!! Grazie milli Lucia!!!!
- ¡Una experiencia maravillosa! Participé en una clase de cocina con Lucia y fue absolutamente encantadora. Aprendimos a hacer orecchiette salentinas desde cero, siguiendo la tradición local, y luego preparamos un delicioso tiramisú casero. Lucia fue muy amable, paciente y simpática durante toda la clase. Nos hizo sentir como en casa y compartió con nosotros no solo recetas, sino también historias y consejos auténticos de su región. ¡Recomiendo esta experiencia a todos los amantes de la cocina italiana!
- Thank you, Lucia! I had a great time with you, learning playfully about the specialities of the Salento region, getting to know the traditional way of making local pasta (as well as a typical Tiramisu) and eating a very delicious meal!
- We are very happy with the experience with Lucia! We made calzoni and homemade pasta! Then Lucia and her partner entertained us with traditional Salento music! A complete experience! Highly recommended!!!
- A unique experience, not only through the flavors, but also through the stories of Salento’s tradition. It was a fantastic welcome because, in addition to letting us immerse ourselves and create our own dishes, Lucia, together with her partner, introduced us to the traditional music and stories of this wonderful land, Salento! A complete and unique experience that we truly recommend to everyone.

Lucia
Cesarina from 2024Location: Lecce Languages: Italian and English"You always cook thinking of someone, otherwise you're just preparing food" What I love most is passing down the traditions of my region through culinary art, that is, everything that has been passed down to me by my grandmothers since I was a child. A journey that goes from homemade pasta, to traditional pittule, to the typical sweets of my land.
