Hi from Alessandro!

My name is Alessandro Carlini, I was born in Milan in 1961 to parents from Emilia. My father was originally from Sestola, a mountain village in the province of Modena, and he taught me how to make Berlenghi, a typical specialty from that part of the Apennines. These are very thin crêpes made from a simple, liquid batter consisting of water, flour, and salt, which is called "colla." Another specialty from the Modenese Apennines is Crescentine (better known as Tigelle), a small, round type of bread, which, like Berlenghi, are traditionally served with Modenese pesto—a blend of lard, garlic, and rosemary, accompanied by Parmesan cheese. Alternatively, these dishes can be paired with cured meats, cheeses, vegetables, or Nutella for a sweet version.

The meeting with Alessandro was a nice personal and human experience. He was very keen to create a good atmosphere and explain everything well and patiently - and the pasta tasted good.

We had such a great evening with Alessandro! He picked us up at the agreed meeting point, and after a short ride we arrived at his place. Before we started cooking, he offered us some super tasty antipasti and fantastic wine, which we really enjoyed. We prepared two types of pasta and a tiramisu, and Alessandro was really kind and patient throughout the whole process, explaining everything very clearly. During dinner, we had great conversations about all kinds of topics. My wife and I felt more like friends than guests or participants in a cooking class. At the end of the night, Alessandro even drove us back to our apartment – an outstanding service we didn’t expect. All in all, it was an experience I’ll never forget. Thank you for everything, Alessandro.

Es war ein sehr schöner Abend! Alessandro war ein wunderbarer Gastgeber! Die Rezepte waren sehr gut und werden bestimmt für die nächste Party verwendet 👍! Wir sind sehr froh, dass wir wieder ein solches Event über Cesarine gebucht haben!

Ieri abbiamo passato una serata fantastica con Alessandro e ci siamo goduti la sua ospitalità. Oltre al cibo super buono, preparato con tanto amore, sono stati lo scambio di idee e le chiacchierate interessanti a rendere l'esperienza indimenticabile. Anche suo figlio si è unito a noi più tardi e abbiamo passato una serata fantastica. Grazie mille!
