Hi from Eleonora!

I am Eleonora, a true cooking enthusiast living in a charming farmhouse nestled in the Umbrian countryside. My greatest passion is preparing homemade pasta, using exclusively locally-sourced ingredients to ensure authentic and genuine flavors.I live surrounded by nature and its fresh produce, provided by the seasons and the surrounding area. I love sharing the Umbrian culinary tradition with my guests, highlighting local flavors through the use of raw materials cultivated in the fields near my farmhouse.

We had a fun time learning how to make pasta for the first time! We enjoyed the wine/food tasting before the cooking began too. After making the ravioli and the fettuccine we were able to taste our creations and bring home plenty of freshly made pasta for an upcoming meal. Great experience-don’t miss it!

I had a fantastic time! Eleonora was a very patient teacher, and she paid careful attention to make sure I was following and learning proper technique. We made some amazing pasta and got to eat at the end. Such a great experience!

Eleonora was amazing so welcoming and a great teacher . It was a dream of mine to come to Italy and make authentic Italy sauce. My mother was Italy born in Sicily and this trip was in honor of her and celebrating my 70th birthday. I am starting my own Italian cook book with some of these recipes This class was everything I expected and more.

What a lovely experience! We were surprised to find that there was a welcome tasting of cheeses, meat, some accompanying things like jams or honey, and wine across the street before we began the class. And then Andrea took us back over to Eleanora, who passionately & loving taught us how to first, make dough that be used for several things: fettucine, ravioli, tortellini, etc. Then, we learned how to roll it out to the right size and shape for what we were doing, which was fettucine and ravioli. Eleanora is so knowledgeable, and very passionate about using the best ingredients. She is also kind and fun. We had a lovely time! She taught us how to make a good cream and the best kind of Tiramisu. We ended the class by eating our spinach & ricotta ravioli with a little white wine, followed by our tiramisu... and our leftovers plus our fettucine noodles (to be cooked later) go home with us!
