Cooking class
In this class, you will enrich your cooking skills by learning about typical
Umbrian dishes and how to match appropriate wine. A cook and a sommelier
conduct this hands-on class with passionate enthusiasm.
Roberta, with her natural abilities to turn any ingredients in a appetizing
dish, will walk you through the making of a complete Umbrian dinner. You
will work with her in preparing home made tagliatelle (flat noodles) with
or without egg and appropriate sauce. The menu is seasonal and may include
dishes like zucchini cream – a delicate soup of fresh zucchini, agnello
in fricassea – a special lamb dish from this region,- and cod fish
with raisins and plums to give a few example. Extensive vegetarian-only
menus made from local organic produce are also available. The class will
include the preparation of an appetizer, a primo (pasta, rice or soup dish),
a secondo (meat, fish, game or vegetarian), side dishes and dessert. During
the class, Lanfranco, a knowledgeable sommelier, will teach you how to appropriately
match each course with the appropriate wine.
Enjoy cooking in this hands-on class, relax in the comfortably beautiful
living area adjacent to the kitchen sipping a cocktail, and then seat a
the table to enjoy the 5-course meal your group helped prepare.
