Cooking class: learn how to cook Italian recipes
Private Experience
Your experience
- Tigelle with Modenese pesto, Parmesan and balsamic vinegar
- Green lasagne with ragù
- Tiramisù
I will guide you through the preparation of doughs, the art of rolling out pasta, using a rolling pin, and creating a lump-free béchamel sauce and a delicious ragù. I'll share many secrets gleaned from years of experience, making cooking much simpler and more enjoyable.
I have a university background in foreign languages, English and German, so it will be easy to engage in conversations with people from all over the world. My house, which has retained its original characteristics, is a century-old building located near the center of Modena.

- We cooked lasagna with Raffaella and it was a great experience! She's very patient and explained each step in details. We made everything from scratch: the ragu, béchamel, pasta. We also made a salad. It took longer than the class time and we appreciate Raffaella spending extra time for us to complete the dishes. Everything was delicious! It made us appreciate Italian cooking more. We recommend booking a class with Raffaella.
- Overall, it could have been better. Raffaella was nice but not very talkative. Our kids enjoyed making pasta and the food was great but our host was disorganized - time management was a problem as we didn't eat until 9pm (our class was 5:30-8:30). It was also extremely hot in the apartment which was challenging.
- Outstanding experience-excellent teaching, delicious food, unique atmosphere
- Rafaella was a wonderful host! We were able to choose 3 recipes to prepare and everything was delicious! She was kind and accommodating for my young daughter’s. Highly recommend!
- Rafaella was extremely kind and shared her great cooking experience while we had the opportunity to prepare a delicious Italian full meal. We had the a great time!

Where
Raffaella
Cesarina from 2018Location: Modena Languages: German, English, ItalianRaffaella's house is located near the center of Modena, where the historic Via Giardini begins, that since 1781 connects Modena and Lucca, crossing the Apennines. The environment in which Raffaella receives guests is an art nouveau house in which our Cesarina has carefully and lovingly preserved family objects and furnishings. With similar feelings, Raffaella, who beyond the passion for cooking also cultivates the one for foreing languages, English and German in particular, welcomes friends and guests, pampering them with the aromas and flavors of her dishes.
