Hi from Marzia!
"My house borders the 'di bandella' nature reserve, where the animals of the forest still live. It is a house on one floor, without architectural barriers, recently renovated: modern and equipped kitchen, guest reception room, oven wood, eat-in kitchen on the veranda outside, where we have the Pratomagno massif in the background. I have a large vegetable garden, where I try to stock up on products for the winter and lots of farm animals. When the time comes I go in search of herbs spontaneous, in order to make the filling for ravioli, and I dedicate myself to mushroom picking."
My specialities
- Crostini with black cabbage and livers
- Ravioli filled with wild herbs
- Roast 'nana' with rocchini (duck with celery meatballs, typical dish of the Valdarno Aretino area)

- We instantly felt at home in Marzia's kitchen, and she was passionate about teaching us how to make ravioli. Marzia knew it was our anniversary and showed us how to make multi-colored ravioli -- using beetroot to create red dough, including cute little hearts! Everything from scratch ... we mixed the eggs, semolina flour, and oil. Then we kneaded the dough -- Marzia showed us the right technique. Once the dough sat, we rolled it out by hand with a rolling pin, cut different shapes, and folded various ravioli. We had fun and learned a lot. Thank you, Marzia! We will never forget the experience you provided!
- We had a wonderful afternoon with Marzia learning how to make ravioli. Marzia was so welcoming, friendly and a great teacher, and all took place in a beautiful setting. We subsequently sampled our efforts accompanied by delicious local wine. We would certainly recommend this experience.
- We (my daughter and I)had a wonderful workshop making ravioli. Marzia was very friendly, professional and taught us a lot. We really enjoyed it and can recommend it to everyone who likes cooking! Thank you very much, Marzia!
- Grazie a Marzia ci siamo divertiti tutta la famiglia, compreso il bambino di due anni a preparare un ottimo tiramisù, ravioli ripieni e tagliatelle. Siamo stati accolti da tutta la famiglia con grande entusiasmo. Esperienza sicuramente da consigliare .
- Cooking with Marzia was a great pleasure. She is a very energetic person, willing to teach her passion for cooking. We also had the chance to taste some local goodies during a pre-dinner! Overall, the experience was very interesting and helpful, thanks to Marzia and her family! Hope to see her again!
