Description
A Taste of Tradition: Welcome to Your Cooking Class
Your unforgettable experience begins the moment you step into the culinary heart of Bologna. In a professional and exclusive setting, a local private chef will personally welcome you with stories of Bolognese cuisine and its rich, centuries-old heritage. Indeed, this isn’t just a cooking class—it’s a cultural journey. During this session, you’ll explore the deep connection between food, history, and identity in Emilia-Romagna, setting the stage for the hands-on fun to come.
Hands-On Pasta Making with a Chef
Next, get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into the art of pasta making! With personal guidance from your expert chef, you’ll learn the traditional techniques for creating fresh, handmade pasta from scratch. You will learn everything from mixing the perfect dough to shaping it into iconic forms. For instance, you’ll master the art of the Tortellino. According to legend, its unique shape was inspired by the navel of the goddess Venus! Depending on the day, you might also prepare Tagliatelle or a classic Lasagna. Ultimately, you’ll leave not just with new skills, but with wonderful stories to take home from your time in Bologna.
Savor Your Creation: A Meal to Remember
Finally, after your hands-on lesson, it’s time to relax and celebrate your new culinary talents. You will sit down for a delicious light lunch or dinner, featuring the very pasta you just created. To complete the meal, we will pair your dish with a curated selection of local cured meats, regional cheeses, and a glass of fine wine. It’s a perfect moment to celebrate your creations, toast to la dolce vita, and enjoy the flavors of Bologna in the most authentic way possible.
