Discover the rich culinary traditions of Verona and the Veneto region in this authentic hands-on cooking class with Chef Aurora. Set in a warm and welcoming atmosphere, this immersive experience invites you to explore the flavors, recipes, and hospitality that have made Northern Italian cuisine famous around the world.

Your journey begins with a traditional Italian aperitivo featuring a selection of delicious homemade bruschette topped with fresh seasonal ingredients, accompanied by Chef Aurora’s homemade sweet-and-sour giardiniera, a beloved local specialty bursting with flavor.

Next, you'll roll up your sleeves and learn the art of handmade pasta. Depending on the season and your preferences, you'll prepare soft and delicate potato gnocchi, colorful beetroot gnocchi, or pumpkin gnocchi made with fresh local ingredients. Alternatively, you can create traditional tagliatelle and pair them with flavorful sauces such as classic tomato sauce, creamy gorgonzola and walnuts, or a vibrant black kale pesto.

For an even richer culinary experience, guests may choose to prepare two different types of pasta, including filled specialties such as tortelli or ravioli, learning the techniques and secrets behind some of Italy’s most treasured recipes.

To finish on a sweet note, you'll prepare one of Italy's most iconic desserts: the classic Tiramisù. Alternatively, discover a hidden gem of Veronese pastry tradition by learning how to make Torta Russa, a historic dessert that originated in Verona and remains one of the city's most beloved specialties.

Throughout the class, Chef Aurora will share family recipes, local traditions, and practical cooking tips, offering a genuine glimpse into everyday Italian life. Once the cooking is complete, you'll sit down together to enjoy the dishes you've created, accompanied by great conversation and the warm hospitality that defines Italian culture.
