Immerse yourself in the heart of Italian culinary tradition with an authentic cooking experience in Naples. Step into a bright, authentic Neapolitan kitchen and meet a professional local chef who will guide you through a complete culinary journey filled with good food, hands-on cooking, and plenty of fun.
Begin by learning to make handmade fresh pasta, one of Italy’s most beloved traditions. Discover the original family recipe of our grandmother, a traditional recipe passed down through generations. Using fresh eggs and simple, high-quality ingredients, you’ll learn the same traditional method used in Italian homes to prepare fresh pasta from scratch. Work the dough into a smooth, elastic sheet, from which you’ll create your first pasta shape: long, silky fettuccine.
Next, put your pasta-making skills to the test with a completely different shape: prepare fresh ravioli, a masterpiece of craftsmanship and precision. Shape and fill each individual raviolo by hand, using fresh ricotta and spices, then carefully seal your little pasta parcels. Following the same family tradition, top with a sauce made from San Marzano DOP tomatoes, known for their superior quality. By the end, you'll have created two completely different styles of fresh Italian pasta with your own hands, using recipes and techniques passed down through generations.
Complete your culinary experience by making artisanal tiramisu, one of the most iconic and beloved Italian desserts. Learn a traditional Italian recipe step by step, make mascarpone cream with the right proportion of ingredients, work it to achieve a perfect consistency, and build your dessert layer by layer, using coffee-soaked ladyfingers and a generous dusting of cocoa.
Finally, sit down to enjoy everything you’ve created: fettuccine Alfredo, ravioli with San Marzano tomato sauce, and your tiramisu. Relax around the table, enjoy your creations together and share the experience with your fellow food lovers, as you listen to anecdotes and curiosities about Neapolitan culinary traditions from your chef.
Before leaving, you'll receive the traditional family recipes you learned during the experience, so you can recreate the experience at home. If you need help when you're at home, you can also contact by phone for assistance with the recipes and preparation.
And there’s one last surprise before you leave: you'll receive your own personalised cooking diploma with your name on it, a fun souvenir to take home and remember your Neapolitan cooking experience.
No cooking experience is required; just bring your appetite and curiosity. The friendly atmosphere and the chef’s guidance will make you feel at ease from the first step to the final bite.
