Fantastic!!!
What an unbelievable experience we had with Bianca and her family. She was lovely enough to fit us in last minute. Little did we know it was less than 48 hours after her son’s wedding, which was also where we had our class. Her house is a 5th generation hunting lodge that sits on a hilltop about 25 minutes outside of Bologna, but was easy to get to.
We were welcomed by Bianca, her husband, her daughter, her brand new, lovely daughter-in-law and their wonderful dogs. We were learning to make tortellini and tiramisu, but in classic Italian style we started with some wine first, then made the dough first so it could rest. We jumped to the meet filling - a combination of pork, mortadella and prosciutto, combined with parmigiana and seasoning. It knocked our socks off.
Next came the fun part - cutting the tortellini, filling them and trying to make them look pretty. The making them look pretty was the hardest part. More fine followed and then it was time to make the tiramisu and let it chill before we got to dig in for lunch.
While the tortellini were cooking, we whipped up an incredible sauce that was super easy to make. Then more wine and time to eat.
It tasted amazing and we enjoyed the countryside as we sip more wine, eat amazing pasta and downed our dessert. The time flew by and Bianca and her entire family were extremely gracious with their time and talents.
I highly recommend this first class cooking experience with Bianca.
