Descrizione
Welcome to my traditional Tuscan cooking class among centuries-old olive trees and vineyards. My kitchen is big, with a spacious, and fully equipped table. Everyone will have their own personal working station. You'll learn how to prepare three traditional Tuscan dishes hailing from the region between Florence and Arezzo. All recipes are more than 100-years-old and have been passed down my family through the generations.
After cooking, we'll sit down to enjoy the dishes prepared together with a glass of local wine, cantuccini biscuits and Vinsanto. If there are any leftovers, you can take it with you! You'll also bring home new knowledge of local life and an understanding of our culture, as well as my recipes and an exclusive hand-made gift.
This is not just a cooking class: this is a journey that we'll make together through my roots, and local food and traditions.
Vegetarians and families with children are welcome.

The best!
Our host and teacher, Francesca was outstanding. A wonderful combination of warm and welcoming, plus knowledgeable and competent. We were celebrating the birthdays of 2 of our family members and Francesca made a special effort to honor them. Everything was organized and ready to go; so well that our cooking time felt just as easy as if we were cooking in the kitchen with a dear friend. We learned to make 2 delicious pasta dishes. We made our own pasta and sauces while happily exchanging family food and cooking stories. At the end, Francesca gave us a lovely gift of the recipes for the lunch we made. We can’t wait to pass on the traditional recipes with our friends and family at home! Thanks to Francesca for a memorable day!

An authentic experience into Tuscans world of food
We enjoyed Francesca’s class a lot. It was so much fun learning to make homemade Pici with zucchini sauce, but even more her grandmothers chicken recipe! I already made it for my fiancé back at home! It sooo delicious! Francesca is an incredible and remarkable person who is very worldly yet authentic and true to her culture! It was a wonderful evening full of laughter, learning and great story telling. Just wonderful!

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! This experience was the perfect end to my family’s Tuscan holiday. Perfect was the setting, pale blue country kitchen with huge windows, big, perfectly set table and our host Francesca, whose warm and open-hearted personality made us feel genuinely welcome to her home. Instead of 4 hours, we stayed with Francesca for almost 6 hours, cooking, chatting, exchanging recipes. No video can get anywhere close to personal contact with the local cook, who answers all your questions, shares stories about her life, giving you such an authentic view at Tuscan way of life. The dishes we prepared were simple, yet absolutely delicious! Both my daughters, my husband and I were delighted with the presents Francesca prepared for us. Such thoughtfulness, attention to detail. I feel I can’t praise Francesca enough :) Our sincere and absolute recommendation! Bravo Francesca!

It's so much more than a cooking class!!
It’s hard to describe just how amazing this experience was for me and my partner. From the moment we stepped into Francesca’s beautiful kitchen, we felt at home. She treated us like old friends. When we got to her place she already had yummy appetizers and wine prepared for us, the kitchen was tastefully set with all the ingredients and little cooking stations. But this was so much more than a cooking class - we got to hear about the history and her personal connections to the dishes we were making, we chatted for hours. Francesca was SO generous in every possible way - with the food, drinks, goodie box at the end of the experience and her time (we ended up staying at her home till 10 pm).
If you are contemplating getting this experience, trust us go ahead and book! This was an absolute highlight of our trip. You will never get this type of treatment in a commercial cooking class. It was filled with love, generosity and passion for cooking.
We will never forget this experience.

Perfect Family Class
The experience at Francesca’s cucina was absolutely incredible!
She hosted us like family members would. The menu was typical to what you would expect as a Tuscan food experience. These recipes are family tradition for Francesca and it is awesome to bring back to Canada this tradition and to cook it again... hopefully as good as with Francesca! We made this cooking class a part of my wife’s birthday vacation in Italy and all the members of the family were touched by the greetings, the generosity and culinary experience in Francesca’s cucina. A-1+++
