About this tour
Roll up your sleeves in a Turin home kitchen for a two-hour crash course in Piedmontese cooking. Your host—a passionate home cook from Cesarine's network—walks you through preparing an iconic regional dish from scratch, then you sit down together to eat what you've made alongside a second course they've prepared. You'll finish with wine, coffee, and the satisfaction of having cooked like a local.
Highlights
- Hands-on pasta-making with a Piedmontese home cook
- Cook and eat your own dish plus a host-prepared course
- Wine, coffee, and sparkling water included
- Small group in an actual home kitchen
- Learn techniques, not just recipes
What to expect
You'll arrive at your host's home and move straight into the kitchen. They'll demonstrate the signature dish—likely pasta—then guide you through each step at your own station with all equipment and ingredients ready to go. Expect about 90 minutes of active cooking, which feels unhurried and conversational rather than rushed. Once finished, you'll plate up your creation and sit at their table with the second course (perhaps an antipasto or dessert) they've prepared in parallel. The meal is casual and social; this isn't plated fine dining but genuine home cooking.
Good to know
Public transport is walkable from the location. Wear clothes you don't mind getting flour on. Cesarine hosts across Italy are vetted home cooks, not professional chefs—expect warmth and authenticity over restaurant-standard presentation. Two hours includes cooking and eating.
