Workshops In Tuscany -

Our One-Day cooking class is flexible, fun, informal and hands-on. The class is designed around a typical Tuscan meal with fresh local in season ingredients. Included is menu planning, shopping for ingredients, preparation, cooking and of course eating and critiquing the meal.

The class is taught in English at at our home on Mount San Egidio (not at Il Rifugio), just ten minutes above the historic Medieval town, Cortona. We start by meeting at a Cafe in Cortona to discuss the menu over cappuccinos and pastries. After breakfast we will take you to the various markets to collect all the necessary ingredients for your menu selections. We then return to our home where you will help with the preparation and cooking of the meal and then sit down to enjoy and critique your creation.

The meal can be served inside or out, weather permitting. If there is something specific you want to do, please contact us a at least a week prior to your class day.
