About this tour
Roll pasta dough by hand and shape two distinct styles from scratch, then master tiramisu in a three-hour kitchen session in Ercolano. You'll cook alongside a Cesarina—a member of Italy's network of home-based cooks—in a small group of no more than a dozen. Start with prosecco and local snacks, finish by eating what you've made, and take home new skills and friendships forged over genuine Italian cooking.
Highlights
- Hand-roll sfoglia and shape two different fresh pasta varieties
- Prepare tiramisu with traditional technique and ingredients
- Cook in a Cesarina's home kitchen, not a tourist venue
- Maximum 12 people; Italian aperitivo included
- Taste your finished dishes with wine and coffee
What to expect
You'll arrive to prosecco and nibbles, then move straight to the counter. Your Cesarina will demo the basics, then guide you through rolling and shaping pasta by hand—expect flour on your apron and forearms. You'll make one filled variety and one fresh cut pasta, learning the rhythm and feel rather than following rigid steps. The tiramisu comes last, a lighter task after pasta work. Throughout, you'll taste as you cook and sit down to eat everything you've prepared, with wine and coffee on hand. It's active, conversational, and genuinely domestic.
Good to know
Wear clothes you don't mind dusting with flour. Comfortable shoes help—you'll be on your feet for three hours. An apron is provided. Public transport links exist nearby if you're not driving. The experience is in Italian, with English-speaking Cesarinas available.
