Your experience
  • Fresh pasta

I have always loved making fresh pasta and I have always shared it with my partner Alessio. We are keen to offer you this experience in order to share with you all the secrets we have discovered over the years and the tricks we have learned by flaking kilos and kilos of pasta.

We will start from the doughs, knowing and appreciating their characteristics and differences, and after that we will sheet, stuff and prepare three iconic types of Piedmontese pasta: tajarin, ravioli and gnocchi. At the end, your efforts will be rewarded by tasting our preparations paired with sauces and a good glass of wine!

We absolutely loved our cooking class with Sarah and Alessio! They went above and beyond to make it such a special experience — the food and wine were incredible, and their warmth and hospitality made us feel completely at home. It was the perfect way to spend our first weekend in Turin and a wonderful introduction to Italian life. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the city!

We had a fantastic cooking experience with Sara and Alessio in Turino. We were welcomed into their home and taught how to make the perfect gnocchi, pasta and tiramisu which we enjoyed sharing with them. Their love of food was infectious and their knowledge of Italian cuisine was excellent. We will certainly be trying to replicate these dishes when we are home. Thank you Sara and Alessio. We arrived as strangers and left as friends.

An Italian Feast to Remember with Sara and Alessio. An absolute must while visiting Turin. From the moment we arrived at Sara and Alessio’s home, their warmth and openness made us feel completely at ease - like we were visiting old friends. We began with a hands-on pasta-making session, where Sara and Alessio gently guided us through traditional techniques while weaving in stories and traditions of the local area. We discovered the history and meaning behind each type of pasta. It was both fun and educational, and Sara and Alessio guided us patiently through every step, making it easy to relax and enjoy the process. With our pasta crafted, the dining began: the starter featured a range of small plates, including exquisite eggs and soft, flavorful focaccia bread that immediately showcased the quality of local ingredients and tradition but most importantly, home-made talented cooking. Then came the highlight: the pasta we had made ourselves, served as a main course. The taste was simply outstanding - fresh, rich and authentic. A wonderful wine was paired beautifully, elevating every bite. For dessert, we indulged in a sweet treat that perfectly closed the meal. Beyond the flavours, Sara and Alessio shared so much of themselves - stories of the region, food techniques and their lives. Alessio’s passion for curing meats added another layer of depth to the experience, making it feel less like a class and more like a heartfelt exchange. In every moment, they were outstanding and thoughtful hosts, blending authentic tradition with genuine conviviality. This wasn’t just a cooking class - it was a rich and wholesome experience through food, wine and storytelling. An absolute highlight of our travels. Thank you Sara and Alessio.

Tradition is an innovation that has brought us this far. Starting from the local raw materials, I transform them following both the lessons from my mother and grandmother and the techniques learned through studies and travels. For me, cooking is primarily about conviviality, sharing, and exchange... Always accompanied by a good glass of wine! I prefer first courses and baked goods, smoked meats, and recently I have been producing homemade cured meats. My favorite dish... It's the next one I'll have the opportunity to try!
