About this tour
Learn to make fresh pasta and Puglian classics in a family-run country house outside Ostuni. Over three hours, you'll work alongside locals to prepare a three-course meal—starter, pasta, and dessert—using seasonal produce from their garden when available. Cook alongside your hosts, then sit down together to eat what you've made, leaving with printed recipes to recreate the dishes at home.
Highlights
- Hand-roll pasta with family guidance in their kitchen
- Pick seasonal vegetables straight from the garden
- Prepare appetiser, pasta course, and regional dessert
- Share the meal you've cooked with your hosts
- Take home recipes for all three dishes
- Choice of Fiano white, Primitivo rosé, or red wine
What to expect
You'll arrive at their countryside property and be shown around the kitchen and garden. Your hosts will demonstrate techniques—kneading, rolling, shaping—then guide you through each step as you make the dishes yourself. It's unhurried: the point is learning, not speed. Depending on the season, you might pick tomatoes or herbs to use in what you're cooking. Once everything's done, you'll sit together at the table and eat it all, wine included. The whole process takes about three hours, and you'll leave with written recipes so you can attempt it yourself later.
Good to know
Specify any allergies or food intolerances when you book—there's a cat in the house, so mention if that's a problem. Transport from Ostuni town can be arranged for an extra fee. Children are welcome, including infants in prams. Non-alcoholic alternatives available.
