Shared Experience
Your experience

    I will teach you how to prepare tigelle, a type of small, round-shaped bread typical of the Apennines of Modena, which is traditionally topped with Modenese pesto, a chopped mixture of lard, garlic and rosemary accompanied by Parmesan cheese. Alternatively, these preparations can be accompanied by sliced meats, cheeses, vegetables, or Nutella for the sweet version. We will cook them in a pan so that you can easily prepare them at home as well. To follow, dessert, coffee and various digestives!

    It's such a fabulous and unforgettable experience that I very excitedly share it with my friends and family! This activity is highly recommended if you would like to experience something local as a tourist. Mr. Alessandro is such a great host, from picking me up at the meet up point and drop me off to a different nearby place which I wanted to go. His hospitability make me feel so comfortable and welcomed to have a cooking session at his home. He patiently explained and answered all the questions that I have. I have had a few polenta dishes in Italy during my trip. I still feel that his recipe is the best that I had tried so far.

    My name is Alessandro Carlini, I was born in Milan in 1961 to parents from Emilia. My father was originally from Sestola, a mountain village in the province of Modena, and he taught me how to make Berlenghi, a typical specialty from that part of the Apennines. These are very thin crêpes made from a simple, liquid batter consisting of water, flour, and salt, which is called "colla." Another specialty from the Modenese Apennines is Crescentine (better known as Tigelle), a small, round type of bread, which, like Berlenghi, are traditionally served with Modenese pesto—a blend of lard, garlic, and rosemary, accompanied by Parmesan cheese. Alternatively, these dishes can be paired with cured meats, cheeses, vegetables, or Nutella for a sweet version.
