Shared Experience
Your experience
- Aperitif with Prosecco and seasonal appetizers
- Pizza topped with seasonal ingredients
We will start the experience with excellent Prosecco, purchased directly from the producer, accompanied by seasonal appetizers such as tomato bruschetta, extra virgin olive oil, local goat cheese, and cecina, a typical local specialty. We will then move on to preparing the pizza dough, exploring the differences between flours, the use of fresh yeast or sourdough, and the importance of resting time and temperature. Together, we will create the toppings, from the classic Margherita with local mozzarella, tomato, and oregano to any personalized requests. To finish, Italy’s most iconic dessert: tiramisu! Upon request, we can also prepare traditional local sweets.

- My husband and I had an incredible experience with Monica and her husband. The house was lovely, as we made food on the back patio. We started by making the dough and then while the dough raised, we had some appetizers that were local to their area. We had incredible conversation, although somewhat challenging with the language, but we all did incredibly well. We then made the pasta and the sauces for the noodles. It was an incredible night! And one that I would recommend to anyone.
- Monica and her husband were wonderful hosts and took great care and time to teach and create a fun experience.
- We had such a lovely time with Monica during our cooking class! She treated us like family, and served us to some of the most delicious food we have had in Italy! She was a great instructor, and made the experience both fun and educational, and really gave the class a personal touch! I highly recommend Monica for an authentic Italian cooking experience!!
- This experience was wonderful! We were paired with Monica who warmly welcomed us into her home and gave us a night to remember! We started by analyzing the unlimited number of available Italian flour before selecting the base of our pasta. She was patient and strict at the same time - exactly what you'd expect from an Italian teacher. We greatly enjoyed rolling the dough, making the sauces, cutting the pasta, and drinking the wine! Monica and her husband were super entertaining with their local stories and jubilant attitude. I was full for days afterwards. 10/10 would cook again!
- Our afternoon with Monica was wonderful! It was not only authentic and educational but Monica made us feel like family! She took the time to make sure we understood the techniques and we rested with good food, good company and good wine in between! Paolo, Monica’s husband was wonderful as well. He worked hard behind the scene to make this a memorable experience!
