What to expect
You'll arrive at your host's home and move straight into the kitchen. Expect to get your hands floury—you're doing the work, not watching. Your Cesarina will guide you through mixing, kneading, and shaping two pasta dishes, explaining the why behind each step. Once pasta is cooking, you'll layer mascarpone, coffee, and cocoa for tiramisu. After about two hours of cooking, you'll sit at the table with what you've made, taste it properly, and drink local wine or coffee. The pace is relaxed; this isn't a race.
Good to know
