Description

You may have already had the chance to eat typical Italian specialties, but have you ever tried cooking them? In this private cooking class in Florence you’ll learn how to prepare a pasta-based first course and how to make the authentic artisanal gelato all at once!

There are no other things in the world that Italians appreciate more than eating a hand made pasta dish together with the family, and in this private cooking class you’ll have the opportunity to prepare together with your beloved two pasta specialties. You could discover how to make fresh gnocchi, made with potatoes and flour, or tagliatelle made up with eggs and flour dough, or the world-famous spaghetti. Throughout the class, you'll be guided by a professional chef who will share their expertise and passion for Italian cooking.

After having learned the secrets behind the preparation of pasta you’ll turn your attention to gelato. Our professional and engaging chef In this part of the class will show you how to make this traditional Italian dessert from fresh ingredients, including milk, sugar, and fruit. You'll learn how to create a range of flavors, depending on the seasonal ingredients, and how to freeze and heat the ice cream mix to get a perfect result.

What's the point of cooking without tasting what has been made?Cooking is not the only fun part of this private cooking class, because you’re going to taste your creations together with two glasses of red wine, or non-alcoholic drinks for children. This experience will be repeatable thanks to the digital booklet you will receive at the end of the class, so that you’ll be able to surprise your friends when you’ll be back home!
