Bonjour de la part de Paola Maria !
Pour moi, la cuisine est synonyme de partage. Je l'ai appris de mes grands-mères, qui m'ont transmis les anciennes recettes familiales, des morceaux d'histoire enfermés dans des saveurs et des odeurs. « Partage » était le mot que ma mère répétait lorsqu'elle apportait les plats à table pour moi et mes frères : des plats simples, préparés avec les légumes de notre potager et une pincée d'amour. Aujourd'hui encore, la cuisine est mon langage. Partager ma passion avec ma famille et mes amis, en échange de sourires, est ce qui me rend heureuse. Les plats que je prépare le plus souvent sont : des panzerotti, des plats traditionnels, des focaccias et des desserts à base de confitures faites avec les fruits de mes arbres. C'est ce que j'aimerais transmettre à ceux qui franchissent le seuil de ma maison : l'esprit des Pouilles à partager.

- My friend and I had such a lovely time with Paola & Rosanna at their cooking school. We expected to learn how to make homemade pasta but we experienced so much more. We were welcomed, treated and honestly felt like family even though we just met. They shared a real glimpse into their life and cooking traditions - and were so patient as we tried to learn how to do the pasta shapes properly. The meal was delicious but so special as we felt like we knew each other forever even thought it was just a short time. It is these types of authentic moments that enrich your world and provide memories and connections you don’t forget. Don’t miss this wonderful experience and these amazing people.
- What an amazing experience!!!’
- We spent a lovely afternoon at Cesarine making and eating delicious dishes. We picked fresh vegetables from their garden which were used in the meal. While sipping on espresso we made the Tiramisu. The pasta sauce was started and cooked over an open fire. Following this we made the oracchiette and cavatelli pasta. Paola was helpful and patient while we tried these new techniques. We were offered a lovely rose and Paola showed us how to use the pasta maker to make fettuccine to accompany the pesto. Then it was time to eat a fabulous meal. Many extra dishes were added to our meal including frizzele, fresh mozzarella, flavorful fennel, fried eggplant and salami. It was a perfect meal highlighting all the flavours of Puglia. Thank you Rosana and Paola!
- Paola and her daughter are super nice. We had a great experience beginning with collecting the ingredientes from their vegetable garden. Paola is very patient and she’s a great teacher. She taught us how to make the best tiramisu I have ever had and two delicious pastas. We really loved this experience!!!
- We had an absolutely wonderful time. It was an unmatched experience that provided an authentic glimpse of Italian culture. The family was not only accommodating but incredibly nice and welcoming. We learned, enjoyed delicious food, and will never forget this opportunity. We are grateful that they offered up their home and cannot recommend this class enough. Take it. More than once.
