Local's Home Experience: Pasta & Tiramisu in Sorrento with Alessia

★ 5.0 · 7 reviews⏱ 3 hours📍 Italy

About this tour

Spend three hours in Alessia's Sorrento kitchen learning to roll and shape fresh pasta by hand, then master the layered architecture of tiramisu. You'll work through two traditional pasta styles from dough to plate, understand what separates mediocre tiramisu from the real thing, then sit down to eat what you've made with wine and espresso. Walk away with genuine techniques, not theatre.

Highlights

  • Hand-knead and shape two distinct pasta varieties from scratch
  • Decode tiramisu: cream texture, flavour balance, assembly timing
  • Taste your finished dishes with wine and limoncello
  • Welcome aperitif: Prosecco and local nibbles
  • Cook in a working home kitchen, not a school studio
  • Take home the muscle memory and recipes

What to expect

Alessia will walk you through pasta dough—flour, eggs, salt, technique—showing you how kneading changes everything. You'll shape at least two regional styles by hand, feeling when the dough is right rather than following a timer. Then you'll move to tiramisu: whipping mascarpone and egg, layering with coffee-soaked biscuits, chilling. Expect flour on your clothes and a real conversation about why Italians do things this way. You'll cook alongside other participants, share the meal you've made, and drink something proper at the end.
