Description
Enjoy an authentic Tuscan cooking experience at a family-run agriturismo and winery in the countryside of San Gimignano, where traditional recipes, local ingredients and the pleasure of sharing food come together. Step into a welcoming family kitchen and discover the true spirit of Tuscan cooking through hands-on preparation of classic recipes. Learn how simple, seasonal ingredients are transformed into homemade dishes while discovering the culinary traditions and stories behind them. The experience combines cooking, wine and conviviality, giving you the opportunity to prepare fresh homemade pasta, focaccia with seasonal toppings and traditional tiramisù. After cooking, sit down and enjoy the dishes you have prepared, accompanied by a tasting of four wines produced on the estate and the estate's extra virgin olive oil. More than a cooking class, this is a chance to experience Italian food culture as locals do: around the kitchen, sharing recipes, stories, laughter and time together.
