In the kitchen · PERUGIA PASTA CLASSES
The good benches seat a dozen people and fill weeks ahead. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Join a Cesarina host such as Laura and Luca for a three-hour private cooking class in a Perugia home. Make two pasta dishes and tiramisu from scratch, learn family recipes, and share the meal with wine, coffee, and local conversation.
“Our host, Eleonora, was brilliant and made the experience one to remember!”
Join a Cesarina host in a private Spoleto home for a hands-on class focused on fresh pasta and tiramisu. Hosts such as Claudia, Francesco, and Chiara teach family recipes, local customs, and simple techniques before sharing the meal with you. The class is in English, capped at 12 people, and returns to its meeting point.
“Claudia and Francesco were amazing hosts! They did a wonderful job of showing us local pasta making techniques and teaching us about Italian customs. The food is as simply amazing. We had a long evening of great food and conversation. We would nightly recommend them as hosts for your experience!”
Meet Paola at Colleulivo Home Cooking Classes near Spoleto for a three-hour English-language lesson in fresh pasta. You will knead, cut, roll, and fill pasta, then eat your work with bruschetta, dessert, water, and regional wine. Groups are limited to six.
“We had a great experience with Paula making tagliatelle. We went as a couple. The meal what was served after was the tagliatelle we made along with some local food and wine. Recommended.”
Spend about three hours in a local Perugia home with a Cesarina host, preparing two pasta dishes and tiramisu. You may make ravioli, tagliatelle, pappardelle, pici, or gnudi, then sit down to eat what you cooked together.
“Laura and Luca were wonderful hosts! We had an amazing evening learning how to make homemade pastas. Definitely a highlight of our 50th birthday girl’s trip!!”
Pick a city, a shape of pasta, or a bench with the wine left open.
