Highlight Rimini #1: A wonderful authentic culinary masterclass Yesterday, my wife, our two children and I took the culinary masterclass of la nonna Maria at Villa Maris, Rimini. It was a wonderful experience. We were warmly greeted by the entire family and a friend of the house who served as a translator. First, we were introduced to the art of making tagliatelle. We were kindly guided by Maria with the wisdom of a top chef and the kindheartedness of a grandmother. After kneading the dough, we were treated with delightful appetizers. After the dough had sufficiently rested, we cut it into tagliatelle. In my case, it rather resembled papardelle due to the thickness. I haven't mastered the art just yet. The next step was the cooking of the tagliatelle. We were allowed a peak into the beating heart of Romagnan cuisine in the kitchen of the house. The grandson allowed me a taste of the ragu that was softly simmering on the stove prepared four hours earlier by la nonna herself. A pure culinary delight. But of course, the proof of the tagliatelle al ragu is in the tasting. So, we took place at the grand table withvthe entire family to enjoy the fruits of our hard work and it tasted wonderfully, especially due to Maria's ragu. My youngest son took multiple plates. After the main course we enjoyed an espresso and a plate of dolce. Looking back on this experience, we have to admit it was the highlight so far of Rimini. If you truly want to have an authentic culinary Romagnan experience with the family you must attend the cooking class of Maria. Basta!
