Your experience
The most widespread winter tradition in my region is pork butchery. In Friuli, dishes are dressed up with ham, sausages, and pork cooked according to recipes that have been handed down for generations.
My husband is a passionate pork butcher and I offer a menu inspired by childhood memories, when my grandfather would give me a small salami that he hung on the racks for curing with my name on it. We will start with a nice platter of cold cuts accompanied by tortute, my grandmother's specialty, which I will show you how to make with corn flour. This will be followed by the main course: Friulian pork specialties such as salami with vinegar, muset and bruade, and tender ribs cooked with sauerkraut. Finally, we will make apple fritters accompanied by warm zabaglione cream.

- We want to thank you for this culinary experience of the highest quality, not only because we were welcomed like beloved family, but also because it was of the highest class in terms of taste! We were also allowed to help with the cooking and learned how to make many dishes in the process. So, at the very least, we know we want to make a Frico! Absolutely top quality and, in this pleasant atmosphere of Paola, Loris and Amelia, a must-have experience for anyone interested in cooking and enjoying good food! Thank you!
- The whole experience was amazing, definitely the best highlight to my trip to Italy. Paola and her family were most welcoming and the food was incredible from starts to dessert, also learning new techniques and skills in the kitchen was great. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to try traditional, authentic Italian food 🇮🇹 😁
- Paola and her family are amazing. The cooking class and the whole experience was well established and the dishes were impeccable. Thank you for everything and hope to see you in the future!
- What for a great event! Paola and her husband, supported by their neighbour Alessandra, offered us a delicious dinner. Cured meat and cheese as starter, zucchini gnocchi, frico and tiramisu: it has been an extraordinary dinner of local taste. We felt warmly welcomed like friends! Many thanks, Paola, for this unforgettable evening.
- What an amazing day. We had the best day of our lives! Paola and Luis were exceptional hosts who made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived. Lara our interpreter and a friend of their daughter, was so helpful and friendly. We had fun in the kitchen preparing a three course meal which was fantastic. If you do nothing else in Italy, you must sign up for this. We will forever treasure this amazing experience. Rose and Victor (Australia).

Cesarina from 2023Location: Tavagnacco (UD) Languages: Italian, English, SpanishI bring to the table dishes from three borders: Austria, Slovenia, and Italy. From my birth family, typical peasant dishes of Friulian tradition like frico, dishes with vegetables from the garden that follow the seasons, or artisan cured meats (my husband is a charcuterie enthusiast). Steaming polenta also accompanies game dishes such as wild boar or roe deer. From my husband's family, I learned more Nordic and Slavic traditions like sauerkraut, goulash, and potica. I also enjoy working with sourdough to prepare bread and focaccia.
