Have
you ever seen a real grandma's
kitchen in Tuscany? Do you want
to take part to an interesting
and informative cooking experience
directly at the cook's house,
during your next holiday in Tuscany?
Arianna & Friends organize private
half-day cookery classes in Tuscany
right in the kitchen of Licia!
Licia is a passionate and experience
cook from Lajatico, a small country
village not far from Volterra, famous
for being the birthtown of the singer
Andrea Bocelli.
Our
cooking classes take place in the
morning or in the evening for about
3 hours.
You meet our English speaking assistant
(also German, French, Spanish
and Russian are available) and get
to Licia's house, a typical Tuscan
home in a historical building
in the old part of the village with
a wonderful view over the Pisan
hills.
Here you wear your aprons and hats
and then you begin working at the
several dishes of the menu of the
day: appetizers, primo and secondo
and finally a dessert.
During the preparation of the dishes
you are invited to participate in
chopping vegetables with a mezzaluna
or streching the fresh dough
for your home-made tagliatelle or
ravioli by means of a mattarello.
The lesson is your chance to learn
many of the wise tricks that
a grandma-cook know like no-one else!
Finally, all the dishes prepared are
served in Licia's dining room for
a full dinner together with some
excellent wines from farms of
the area.
Your cooking class at Licia's will
be the most striking day of your
holiday in Tuscany!
During your
day in Lajatico you have also the
chance to see the world famous open
air arena Teatro del Silenzio,
founded by Andrea Bocelli.

This
is an email we received on 16th
October 2011 from Theresa, who spent
half a day in Lajatico at our chef's
house.
Dear
Ariana,
We had a wonderful evening with
Licia and Massimo on on September
27, 2011. Massimo first showed us
The Theater of Silence in Lajatico
and then led us to Licia's wonderful
home. The lesson, dinner, wine and
company were excellent - we truly
enjoyed ourselves. Massimo told
me that I could receive the recipes
for our meal and I would love for
you to send them to me. I did take
notes but in rereading them, I'm
missing quite a bit since I was
involved in the preparing and the
cooking. I am also going to send
you some photos - please share with
Licia and Massimo.
Thank you,
theresa
