Traditional dessert of Vicenza

Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina

I live in the historic center of Vicenza, in an rooftop on the city walls. I will welcome you in my kitchen, and on my terrace, to discover together the typical flavors and recipes of Vicenza.

The dessert of Vicenza have a very long tradition, made of poor but good ingredients, genuine and rich in flavour.

These are some proposals that we could prepare together:

• - "putàna" cake, a humid dessert made with polenta;
• - fregolotta, a crumb dessert made with almonds and corn flour;
• - tiramisù, the most famous Italian dessert in the world, born in Veneto.

But you can also opt for zaleti (corn flour biscuits), fried cream or castagnaccio (chestnut cake).

I'm waiting for you for this sweet lesson and to taste everything together with a coffee, a tea, a sweet wine or a glass of grappa.
