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

Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Beans all'Uccelletto
  • Bruschetta with local products
  • Egg-free tagliatelle with garlic sauce
  • Egg-free pumpkin gnocchi with mushroom cream sauce
  • Veg Cantucci and Vin Santo

You are welcome in my home in Florence! I created this experience so that Tuscan culinary tradition could meet vegan philosophy. My proposal stems from the desire to create a combination of the historical flavours of my land and a very specific ethic, maintaining taste and conviviality. You will be welcomed into my home with a glass of red wine produced by my family and a typical Tuscan appetiser, then we will get to the heart of the experience by preparing two types of pasta. You will knead the famous tagliatelle with your own hands... without eggs, and you will be delighted by the tomato sauce with a special Tuscan garlic. While the dough is 'resting', we will prepare the gnocchi, which you will enjoy with a mushroom cream sauce. To finish, the most famous Florentine dessert, strictly vegan!

I highly recommend Letizia (Lety) cooking class. We were a party of 4 and had a fabulous time, You could feel the love that Lety and her husband have for cooking and their Italian heritage. We had wonderful conversation, good wine and the food was excellent! Just waiting for Lety to email us her recipe so we can start making our own pasta at home!

Letizia
Cesarina from 2022Location: Florence (FI)    Languages: Italian and English
I am Letizia and more than a cook, I feel like a lover of my land, the wonderful Tuscany, and a fan of the vast array of products it generously offers. I strongly support the simple and "poor" tradition where raw materials play the main role and for this reason, they must be chosen and selected for their quality. Passionate about handmade pasta, I create experiences where we prepare and taste Pici with aglione sauce, a typical dressing with which they are now known or with breadcrumbs, according to the less known peasant tradition of the past. But in my events, there are also innovative and typical Tuscan surprises to discover! I was born and raised in the far south of Toscana, an area still little-known in many respects, including its culinary traditions, but I have been lucky enough to live in Florence, one of the most beautiful cities in the world, for over 30 years. Desired and known by all, I am very familiar with traditional Florentine dishes and I have created experiences that boast being a trade union between the center and the south of this region, all in the intimate and welcoming atmosphere of my home and in the company of my family.
