- Tigelle
I am Maria Luisa, Cesarina from Modena, and I await you at my home to spend an evening discovering tigelle, typical flatbreads symbolic of our tradition.
Together, we will learn the secrets and tricks to prepare this dish. These small discs of dough to be stuffed as you like got their name from the terracotta discs used for their baking. In fact, the term probably comes from the Latin word "tegere," meaning to cover.
After the course we will taste the tigelle, pairing them with a good glass of wine. It will be a unique opportunity to share an evening together and meet new people. I look forward to seeing you!

- An experience to have at least once in a lifetime! Maria Luisa is a delightful person, she made us feel at home and delighted us with her stories and delicious food.
- It was a wonderful experience. Between chatting and a glass of Lambrusco, Maria Luisa patiently guided us, teaching us the art of making tortellini. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn the art of homemade pasta.
- We had the best time and the best food.
- I went with a friend to Maria Luisa's house to learn how to make tigelle. I really enjoyed the evening, fantastic company! It really feels like being at home, I had never made the dough before but I immediately felt comfortable. After the course, we all ate the tigelle she had prepared that morning, delicious! The tiramisu was also very good. Wonderful cat 😊
- Entering Maria Luisa’s house is like entering your own home. Beautiful experience and beautiful evening.

Where
Maria Luisa
Cesarina from 2019Location: Modena (MO) Languages: Italian and EnglishModena is a city rich in tradition, famous throughout the world for good food and passion for the automotive industry. On its hills, you can see castles, fortresses, towers, and medieval villages, testimonies of its history, in a landscape that satisfies mind and spirit. Luisa spent her childhood in grandmother's kitchen, surrounded by the aromas and flavors of peasant cuisine. Every day she smelled the scent of fresh homemade pasta, tigelle, and crescentine, and it was exactly her grandmother who taught her to 'put your hands in the dough’. Our Cesarina lives closer to the historic center, where she hides a real treasure: the old family vinegar factory, which she loves to show her guests.
