- Italian trifle
Sundays at my house were a special occasion, and today I'm excited to share with you the dishes my mother lovingly prepared. Together, we will create three unforgettable recipes: Tuscan crostini with chicken liver, a starter rich in authentic flavors; gnudi, a delicious Tuscan pasta dish; and finally, zuppa inglese, my family's favorite dessert inspired by Artusi's recipe, similar to tiramisù but with an irresistible custard cream instead of mascarpone. We’ll enjoy these delights together in my garden, perhaps at sunset, while my dogs, including the sweet Tosca, keep us company. I can’t wait to share this culinary journey with you and let you taste the true flavors of Tuscany!

- This was one of my top two experiences during 2 weeks in Italy! Sara and her daughter Viola were welcoming and so interesting and fun to spend the morning with. Sara had selected dishes consistent with what we had requested. The class was organized and timed perfectly, although we regretted having an afternoon event scheduled that was time critical - we would have loved to stay longer. Sara had selected 4 unique dishes that are not served in Italian homes or restaurants in America so we experienced new and delicious foods. The dessert was tiramisu-like but with a different twist- it was very good. The class took place in their lovely home and we enjoyed the delicious food during lunch with them. As a bonus they helped me practice my Italian language which I appreciated. I highly recommend cooking class with Sara!
- Wonderful experience. My friend and I had a private cooking class in Sara’s home. We enjoyed the focaccia and cheese appetizers she prepared. Then, we had the best time learning how to make two kinds of crostini, gnudi and tiramisu. Sara and her daughter welcomed us into their home in Greve. Sara’s well planned lesson with local ingredients was so much fun. She is a skilled cook and we especially enjoyed chatting with her and experiencing a slice of life in a real Italian village and home. Perhaps the best part was sitting down together to enjoy our creations. Delicious! Don’t miss this opportunity.

Cesarina from 2024Location: Chiocchio Languages: Italian, English, Spanish, FrenchI love rediscovering my mother's recipes and preparing traditional Tuscan first courses. I have my own sourdough starter and make bread, pizza, focaccia, rolls, flatbreads, and breadsticks, all at home using various types of flour. I also make vegan dishes, but the traditional ones that you wouldn't expect to be vegan. My cooking is rustic and simple, with an eye on sustainability. Additionally, I make pantry cakes and traditional sweet leavened baked goods.
