What you'll do
Make your own way to the centrally located meeting spot and transfer by coach to a private estate situated in the hills above Florence. Start your culinary experience with a tasting of a traditional focaccia appetizer accompanied by a glass of Chianti wine. Next your chef-instructor shows you how to make pasta or pizza dough, and explains regional variations. For pasta makers, roll up your sleeves and get to work creating three types of fresh pasta from scratch, and recreate iconic sauces including Pesto, Carbonara, Amatriciana and Cacio e Pepe. For pizza makers, after preparing the dough, select the topping ingredients that you like from the assortment of fresh vegetables harvested from the estate gardens. Your pizza is then baked traditional-style in the wood oven. For dessert, learn to make a creamy gelato that can be accompanied by toppings and sauces. When ready, sit down to enjoy the fruit of your labour accompanied by wine or beer. Your culinary experience ends with a return trip to your starting point in Florence.
