Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
I will welcome you to my home within the family nursery, where I will have the pleasure of sharing with you traditional, easy and delicious recipes. During our meeting, I will guide you step by step in the preparation of authentic dishes. You will learn how to make egg pasta with a delicious ricotta, Parmesan and spinach filling, experimenting with different shapes that you can enjoy with a simple dressing of butter and fresh garden sage. In addition, I will reveal the secret to creating a truly original sweet mousse using extra virgin olive oil. The final choice will be yours: you can enjoy the freshly prepared dishes right in my kitchen or opt to take them home to enjoy at a later time.
We had a great time. It was an unforgettable experience for us. From now on, this will be one of the joint programs with my husband. We make pasta every Sunday. 😊🥰

We had a very fun afternoon, making pasta with Luisa. She showed us how to make traditional egg pasta with her family's recipe. She shared her knowledge and experience by telling us how to make bigger quantities and the insight about the diffrent pasta making techniques. Afterwards we ate the self-made pasta while enjoying a good glass of local wine. Besides the talk about pasta, Luisa also told us about family tradition, history, Pistoia and more. We would recommend booking a cooking class by Luisa!

Lots of fun and very informative, not just about cooking but also the history. A bit of hard work but a very tasty dinner as a reward!

"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."
