Your experience
- Strozzapreti with sausage and tomato
- Ingannaprit with butter, italian ham and shallot
- Traditional ravioli with butter and sage
In Italian tradition, there are many types of homemade pasta, both made with just flour and water and with egg. Strozzapreti are an example of a water and flour dough. Ingannaprit are egg pasta but are fake cappelletti, while orecchioni are a type of filled egg pasta in the shape of a half-moon. I will tell you about the many variations found in families from the same region and in different Italian regions. Together we will prepare the three types of pasta and their accompanying sauces, which are also linked to the Tuscan-Romagnola tradition.

- It was so joyful, we loved every minutes.
- We had a lit of fun coocking with Louisa. She makes everybody feel at ease and lets everybody have their own style when making pasta. We left with a wish to make more and with great recipes and a lot of good stories about the region and Italy as a whole.
- We took a fantastic cooking workshop with Luisa! From the moment we walked in, we immediately felt welcome in her authentic Italian kitchen. Luisa is an incredibly friendly and hospitable woman who speaks with great passion about Italian cuisine and her family. Throughout the session, she shared fun stories and facts from the past, which made the workshop extra special. Everything was prepared to perfection, allowing us to make delicious fresh pasta ourselves in a relaxed atmosphere. It was not only educational but, above all, incredibly cozy. We had a wonderful evening and wholeheartedly recommend this cooking workshop to anyone in the area. A unique and atmospheric experience that truly completes your holiday!
- We had a wonderful afternoon at Luisa's cooking class. So do not hesitate to book. Luisa is a warm and welcoming host who taught us a lot about making pasta. It felt special to be in her home and meet her lovely dog Summer. In total, we made three different types of pasta. We will certainly try to recreate this at home. Luisa's instructions were clear, and she also provided us with information to review later. Thank you, Luisa, for a fun afternoon that ended with a delicious pasta meal.
- What a fabulous morning in this lovely lady’s beautiful home learning how to make pasta. My needs were thoughtfully accommodated (wheelchair user). My grown up son and I had an experience to treasure. Highly recommended

Cesarina from 2022Location: Pistoia (PT) Languages: Italian and English"I was born in Romagna, but now after more than 35 years in Pistoia my home is Tuscany. In the green, but a few kilometers from the station and the Piazza del Duomo. I have a creative and curious soul and in the kitchen, through the dishes of the Romagna and Tuscan tradition, I express at best my spirit of welcome. I love to make homemade pasta, bake bread, cook the classic desserts of the tradition."
