HOME COOKING
1 HALF DAY COOKING WORKSHOP
Our cooking courses are designed those who are simply passionate about good food and eating well and they are conducted by local cooks.
They are based on the preparation of typical Umbrian menus and may also include making fresh pasta, pizza and traditional Italian dishes. The menus are constituted from the different courses and are always accompanied exclusively by local or regional wines. Each class includes a meal or tasting of the dishes prepared during the lesson. Courses may be arranged for individuals, for two people or a small group and may be requested at any time.
As part of our food&wine programme we can also arrange visits, accompanied by your local guides Alessandra and Leonardo to the markets and the local producers where you may purchase typical Umbrian specialties at a fair cost.
