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.

- Delightful experience with a gracious host. Learned about the area and family history.
- What a beautiful individual filled with passion to share family customs and the skills in preparing pasta. Simplistic recipes with great potential and wonderful instruction. We highly recommend this class for embracing the art of preparation, the added knowledge of utilization for multiple presentations, and the warmth of the one-on-one atmosphere.
- Excellent experience with Mrs. Luisa. Luisa, very hospitable and kind, guided us step by step in the preparation of some types of pasta and it was a very interesting and pleasant experience. To be repeated, thank you.
- A wonderful cooking class in a warm, family-style atmosphere. Luisa was a thoughtful and attentive host, carefully listening also to our gluten-free dietary needs and making everyone feel truly welcome. Making fresh pasta together, surrounded by conversation and laughter, turned the experience into something authentic, inclusive, and genuinely special!
- Luisa’s pasta class was authentic and beautiful! She invited you into her home, where she is excellent at explaining the traditional customs of pasta making. It felt like family and home and Tuscan hospitality all wrapped up into one. Bellissimo!

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."
