Clases de Cocina en Benevento

We visited on a Wednesday afternoon with our adult child and their partner and had a most wonderful time! Francesco is an absolutely incredible host who truly made us feel like dear friends being shown the farm and cheese making process. We *HIGHLY* recommend this experience! Take your time, ask lots of questions, and experience, natural cheese, making at its finest!

Perfect way to get to know the people and the food of this region. Teresa and her family made us feel at home while teaching us to make absolutely delicious food. I cannot say enough good things about this experience. Do it!

We were welcomed in with open arms. We started with picking the fruits and vegetables out of their garden and then we went hands on in the kitchen. It was a real Italian cooking experience (because it was so much more than just a class) and we had lunch like friends afterwards. Big thanks to Teresa, Gerardo and Alessandro for letting us in their home and be part of their family for the day.

It was one of the best experiences of our Italian vacation. The farm is full of stories and delicious fruits and vegetables. Teresa and her family are charming and welcoming; we felt like family. If you're looking for luxury, this isn't the place. If you're looking for a real, authentic experience, but above all, with a love of family cooking, this is the place. My 8-year-old children loved the experience. A pleasant memory that will live long in our hearts.

My wife and I had an absolutely lovely day with Teresa and Gerardo at their Benevento farmhouse La Tana del Riccio, which means 'The Hedgehog's Den'. If you visit, ask them to tell you the funny story behind the name! Teresa led us through the garden and chicken coop to gather eggs and vegetables that we used to make an absolute feast. Over the course of the day we created Montanarine Fritte, a simple but delicious starter made from fried pizza dough and tomatoes, lasagne with zucchini and courgette flowers, a pork fillet tagine, and a plum crostata. We made the pasta and cooked alongside Teresa as she gave us expert advice and direction on true Italian cooking. By the end of the meal we were completely stuffed but it was totally worth it! It was a great experience, and if you are planning a trip to the Naples area I highly recommend it.

We’ve had such wonderful afternoon and an authentic experience at La Tana del Riccio. Teresa and her family were very welcoming and great hosts to us…. It was just the two of us and they still made such an effort to show us the farm and how to make several dishes which were all very delicious! Having these for dinner with Teresa and Gerardo and tasting some wine from the neighbors made the evening perfect for us! We would definitely recommend this course to all that want to learn about the food and the people from Campania.. away from all mainstream!

My husband and I were looking to get an authentic Italian cooking cuisine and Teresa’s class was jut it and even more! The cooking class take place in Teresa and her husband lovely farm house, they gave us a tour in the house and their surrounding and it was just beautiful to see all the animals. We made cheese from freshly milked milk and it was an amazing experience. The food was excellent with all fresh ingredients. We talked with Teresa and her husband for hours and really felt that they opened their home and heart for us. Would highly recommend!
