- Bread
- Focaccia
In Italian households, baking bread at home is an ancient ritual, filled with aromas, actions, and patience. It is a special moment that embodies our tradition. Bread can be made in countless ways: using different types of flour (whole wheat, 00, semolina), with or without oil, with little or no salt, enriched with various seeds, using yeast or a long fermentation process. It can be shaped into different forms or made as a single loaf. The slow fermentation is the key step to ensuring the success of our experience. We will complete it by tasting the freshly baked bread and preparing together various types of bruschetta: with tomato, evo oil, and other seasonal delicacies. The same procedure, with a different baking method, is used to make focaccia. A good wine will accompany the dishes

- Monica is fabulous. We had a wonderful time as she welcomed us into her home and treated us like family. The food she helped us prepare was delicious and healthy. Her instructions and helpfulness taught us to be able to prepare food in the future when we are back home. We would highly recommend her and look forward to visiting her again and again.
- Monica was a wonderful host and teacher! She was very informative and funny, making us feel very welcome into her home. Monica was always checking in with us to make sure everything was good within the experience. All of the food was so good and we greatly appreciated being able to share our creation with our family. I would absolutely recommend this experience with Monica!
- It was wonderful! We were so fortunate to have a wonderful cooking teacher, Monika! We learned a lot and are already looking forward to trying the recipes at home ourselves! It was simply brilliant! And we recommend it to everyone who is still hesitant! Go to Monica, you will be thrilled! Cooking in a truly Italian atmosphere! Simply great!
- Monica was a last minute switch for us as our original chef became sick the day before our class. We couldn’t have asked for a better teacher and guide to Italian cuisine. We took this class while on our honeymoon, and it was one of our favorite experiences during our three weeks in Italy. She and her husband were both incredibly warm and inviting, and made us feel like part of their family. We felt that we got much more than just a cooking class, but also an introduction and welcome into Italian culture. We will absolutely be returning when we come back to Italy.
- I am the travel advisor who booked Gayle and her sisters’ cooking class. I have just heard from Gayle, and she raved about the wonderful experience you provided for them. Thank you so much for all of your efforts!
