Experience the heart of Tuscany through a hands-on cooking class at a traditional trattoria! Today, you’ll master the art of making fresh tagliatelle, ravioli, and the classic Italian dessert, tiramisù. This small-group class offers an authentic culinary experience that’s perfect for food lovers.
Your adventure begins in the charming Sant’Ambrogio market in Florence (if it’s closed, the class will proceed without the visit). Explore the vibrant market and pick up the freshest local produce. Once you have everything you need, it’s time to get cooking! Start by preparing two Italian sauces—ragù and a rich tomato sauce—before kneading your own fresh pasta dough.
With the sauces simmering, you’ll move on to making tiramisù, learning the secrets to a perfect mascarpone cream.
