I invite you to my cooking school in the heart of Assisi for a unique experience discovering tortellini!
We’ll start with a welcome aperitif, where you’ll taste some of the finest Umbrian local products, perfect for teasing your palate and immersing you in the flavors of our culinary tradition. I will teach you how to make tortellini, an iconic dish of Italian cuisine. I’ll guide you step by step, from preparing the dough to creating the filling and shaping the perfect tortellini. You’ll discover the secrets behind this recipe, which is also a bit of an art, and how every hand movement makes a difference! At the end of the course, we’ll enjoy the tortellini we’ve prepared together, in a friendly and flavorful atmosphere. I look forward to cooking with you!

- Eleanora was so fantastic. What a lovely lady. We enjoyed her lessons so much. She spent extra time with us. We enjoyed the cheese and wine tasting beforehand as well. I did so much we even purchased wine and olive oil to have sent home. Her grandson’s run the wine, cheese and olive oil store and they are absolutely adorable and knowledgeable.
- Amazing experience. Enjoyed the culture, cooking and comraderie. Highly recommended
- Eleonora was amazing so welcoming and a great teacher . It was a dream of mine to come to Italy and make authentic Italy sauce. My mother was Italy born in Sicily and this trip was in honor of her and celebrating my 70th birthday. I am starting my own Italian cook book with some of these recipes This class was everything I expected and more.
- What a lovely experience! We were surprised to find that there was a welcome tasting of cheeses, meat, some accompanying things like jams or honey, and wine across the street before we began the class. And then Andrea took us back over to Eleanora, who passionately & loving taught us how to first, make dough that be used for several things: fettucine, ravioli, tortellini, etc. Then, we learned how to roll it out to the right size and shape for what we were doing, which was fettucine and ravioli. Eleanora is so knowledgeable, and very passionate about using the best ingredients. She is also kind and fun. We had a lovely time! She taught us how to make a good cream and the best kind of Tiramisu. We ended the class by eating our spinach & ricotta ravioli with a little white wine, followed by our tiramisu... and our leftovers plus our fettucine noodles (to be cooked later) go home with us!
- 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.
