About this tour
Roll and shape fresh pasta by hand, master two classic shapes from scratch, and whip up tiramisu in a three-hour session at a local cook's home in Ostuni. You'll work alongside up to eleven others, tasting everything you make whilst sipping prosecco and local wine. This is where Italian home cooking happens—no restaurant, no theatre, just someone's kitchen and the real techniques that have fed families for generations.

- Hand-roll sfoglia from flour and eggs
- Shape two distinct pasta types from scratch
- Prepare tiramisu with proper technique
- Taste all three dishes you've made
- Prosecco and wine included throughout
- Class in an Italian home, not a studio

What to expect
You'll arrive at your host's home and begin with prosecco and antipasti to settle in. Then it's sleeves rolled up—your Cesarina will walk you through the feel of fresh dough, how to achieve the right thickness rolling sfoglia by hand, and the particular fold or cut that distinguishes each pasta type. You'll move at a human pace, making mistakes and correcting them. In the final stretch, tiramisu goes together: mascarpone, eggs, espresso, cocoa powder. Everything comes together on plates. You eat what you've built, drink more wine, and leave knowing exactly how to do this at home.
Good to know
Book ahead—these classes fill quickly. Your host provides hand sanitiser and paper towels; maintain spacing or wear masks as needed. Public transport nearby makes getting there straightforward. Bring an appetite and wear something you don't mind flour on.
