Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina

Shared Experience
Your experience

    Pumpkin, with its intense orange color, immediately brings to mind the colors of autumn. In fact, this is the time of year when it becomes one of my favorite vegetables and takes me back in time to when I used to watch it being cooked at home on the stove in a terracotta pot.

    It's just as my mother taught me. In this cooking class, I'll show you some ways to use it in the kitchen: stewed, baked, as a filling for ravioli, or simply fried. Perhaps with the addition of a good appetizer, a good wine, and some local sweets, we'll spend a few happy hours together.

    We had an amazing cooking class / experience. I am so glad I did not chose one of those large classes inside some building. This class felt more like visiting old friends. Warm and kind. We learned more than what I signed up for. Highly recommend a class with Filomena (Cesarine). Would love to do it again and again.

    Excellent!

    Filomena was a gracious host! She welcomed us in her home like we were family! Showed us how to make several different pasta's, Egglant appetizer and Tiramisu. We sat at her beautiful outdoor patio and enjoyed a delicious home made pasta, with sausage and mushrooms. It was sooooo good! Can't wait to make it when I go home. Her daughter Antonella was adorable and loved hearing how the young adults live in. Puglia. I would recommend this cooking class to anyone! Ciao!  - 

    Filomena and Antonella were amazing. Not only was Filomena a fabulous host and teacher she welcomed us into her home and made us feel right at home. her daughter was a gem! The instruction and the 3 course meal we prepared was excellent. I cannot wait to get home and make it all over again. Teaching us to make three pastas exceeded our expectations as well. Great Pulia experience, Bravo! 🇮🇹

    I had a wonderful time learning to make pasta and tiramisu with Filomena! It was fun and tasty. Her and her family made me feel very welcome. I highly recommend a class with Filomena.

    Cesarina from 2025Location: Matera (MT)    Languages: Italian and English
    In my kitchen, I use only top-quality ingredients, carefully chosen from local producers, and prepared with attention, using the "star" ingredient—our extra virgin olive oil, produced with passion and dedication. I don’t have a single dish that represents me because every day of the year brings a different specialty, created based on the seasonal availability of ingredients and what’s fresh at the moment. The one ingredient that never misses is love—the love I put into preparing and serving each dish, to offer an authentic and unforgettable experience.
