Hi from Elena!

"Although my cuisine is traditional, I like to offer family and friends also renewed traditional family dishes such as risotto pulled with parmesan crust broth and embellished with balsamic vinegar, tortellini instead I prepare them with a traditional recipe in capon broth . Homemade breads amuse me a lot but also the vegetable voulevant that my grandmothers used to make I do well. The meat deserves a separate discussion because it varies a lot from the more traditional to game. To conclude the desserts, pies, strudels and cakes by the spoon are the ones I prepare most often. Finally, I like to combine my dishes with the most suitable waters, being hydrosomellier ".

My specialities
  •  Mixed cured meats with flakes of Parmigiano Reggiano and ricotta from the dairy accompanied by homemade sandwiches
  •  Tortelloni with ricotta and chard with butter and cheese
  •  Roast pork in milk stuffed with seasonal vegetables

Absolutely amazing experience. Elena was so fantastic, welcoming, funny and knowledgeable (of course). We made risotto, tortellina, and sour cherry pie with a tasting of family balsamic vinegars on regiano cheese. All delicious. Beautiful home. Strongly recommend. Please thank Elena.

Our host Elena was great she was patient and funny. She opened her home to us we met her family and her dogs. We were also very fortunate to taste balsamic vinegar that has been in their family for many generations. Our group highly recommends Elena’s class. Just make sure you get the apartment number as well as the street address.

Nous avons fortement apprécié notre expérience chez Elena, qui a pris le temps de bien nous expliquer les recettes et de s'assurer que nous ayons les bonnes techniques! Le goût des repas cuisinés étaient incroyables et Elena était très généreuse en nous partageant son vinaigre balsamique familial! Nous recommandons fortement! Merci Elena!

It was such a fun experience and I learnt a lot about traditional cuisine in Modena and the region! Elena was a fantastic host and I even got to practice my Italian. I would recommend for future visitors!!

Our time with Elena was great! She showed us simple but amazing recipes I'm excited to cook at home. She also let us taste some of her family's own Balsamic vinegar, which was really tasty, just like the wine and the parmiggiano reggiano she gave us. I would very much recommend booking a cooking lesson with her, as she has very good advice and is really passionate about food.
