Hands-On Cooking Class: Shared cooking class on pizza and focaccia
Shared Experience
Your experience
I’m happy to invite you to discover the secrets of pizza and torta al testo at my cooking school, located in the heart of Assisi's historic center. It’s a unique experience where I’ll guide you through the preparation of traditional Umbrian dishes in a warm and convivial setting. We’ll begin with a welcome aperitif, where you’ll taste local products that will introduce you to the flavors of Umbria.
I’ll teach you how to prepare three different types of pizza: the soft, fluffy pizza alta, the crispy pizza normale, and the traditional torta al testo, a typical Umbrian specialty similar to focaccia, cooked on a stone called "testo."
Together, we’ll enjoy the dishes we’ve prepared in an atmosphere of joy and togetherness. I can’t wait to cook with you!

- Eleonora is the best! I had a wonderful time taking a pasta making class. She made it look so easy. I now have the confidence to make pasta at home. I highly recommend taking this class. We got to eat the ravioli that we made and it was yummy with the red sauce that Eleonora made.
- We had a great time learning to make focaccia and pizza, and we were also treated to a wine, cheese, and olive oil tasting afterwards. Great experience we would recommend to anyone !
- Our pasta-making experience with Eleonora was amazing! She welcomed us warmly and shared her passion and expertise with patience and joy. Learning to make fresh pasta from scratch was both fun and educational, and the final dish was delicious. Every time we make pasta, we’ll think of this unforgettable experience. Grazie, Eleonora! 🍝✨
- Excellent class and delicious pasta!
- I really enjoyed working with and learning from Cesarine! Lots of great tips and the dinner was delicious!
