Nonna Ciana’s team, with the newest addition of the incredible Chef Alberto, will guide our guests on a voyage of discovery of traditional Italian cooking.
We prepare the most typical of the local dishes: homemade pasta with sauces of organic seasonal vegetables from our kitchen garden, melt-in-the-mouth homemade gnocchi, bruschetta, second courses like Vin Santo chicken or eggplant parmigiana, and delicious desserts. All accompanied by our own Chianti Colli Senesi wine.
The courses are organized for small groups (2 to 14 participants). You will use our own produce, wine, honey, saffron, extra virgin olive oil, our fresh garden vegetables, and also local produce from neighboring farms.
The menu is very seasonal and varies from day to day depending on the best ingredients available.
We prepare typical Italian dishes in the framework of a classic Italian meal, i.e. a whole four course meal, so we learn how to make a starter, the famous Italian “primo”, the first course which is generally most beloved part of the meal, with hand made pasta, gnocchi or similar yummy dishes, a second course (usually a meat course but can also be vegetarian) or another primo instead, maybe a filled pasta, and always a delicious dessert. At the end of the class we eat these delicious dishes, accompanied by our own Chianti Colli Senesi wine, all together in the best Italian tradition.
It is also possible to request our special truffle menu, where we include dishes with fresh, seasonal truffles. It is also possible to participate in a truffle hunt and forage for the truffles before the class.
