Overview
This is not your typical Italian cooking class. This is a chance to immerse yourself in a private cooking class with a delightful man passionate about regional Italian cuisine and share an authentic meal with a couple that has been married for 30 years and are still crazy in love!
Fabio lives on a hill in the countryside surrounded by olive trees. Fabio and Christiane (when she is home) welcome you into their colorful home with a refreshing drink. Fabio will explain how they pick olives and how olive oil is made. Next, join Fabio in his kitchen for a 2.5 hour hands-on cooking class. Learn to make fresh pasta, sauce, a main and dessert. Depending on the season, you might help Fabio make tagliatelle con ragù or squid risotto with wild fennel and orange peel, and cod with leeks and purple cabbage or pork chop with almonds. For dessert, enjoy castagnaccio, chestnut flour cake, a regional favorite or panna cotta with strawberry coulis in the summer over a pot of freshly brewed coffee.

You will be picked up in a private car from a central Florence location and driven to your host Fabio’s cozy countryside home nestled in the hills just outside the city. Fabio and his partner Christiane welcome you warmly, sharing stories of Florentine life and how they harvest olives for their own oil. Begin your 2-3 hour, private, hands-on Italian cooking class by learning to make pasta from scratch using traditional machines. Fabio will then guide you through crafting a seasonal sauce—either a fresh vegetable blend or Sicilian-style sauce. Next, prepare a local dish like a pork fillet with almonds or Fabio’s favorite, baccalà con porri e cavolo viola (pan-stewed cod with leeks and purple cabbage). Enjoy your meal with local wine and finish with a seasonal dessert like winter castagnaccio (chestnut flour cake) or summer panna cotta with strawberry coulis. Enjoy each flavorful creation in this unique Tuscan culinary experience! Your immersive food experience with this lovely local couple is a Florentine treat.
