The Cooking classes in Siena & our cooking lesson

Private Tuscany Cooking Classes
My Tuscan Cooking Classes in Siena are always unique — we’ll decide together what dishes to prepare, based on your tastes and curiosity.
You can enjoy this private cooking experience in Tuscany either in the comfort of your holiday home or in my kitchen in Siena, surrounded by the warm atmosphere of a real Tuscan home.
🥗 Fresh, Seasonal & High-Quality Ingredients
I work only with small, trusted local suppliers (“di fiducia”, as we say in Italy), to guarantee pure, top-quality ingredients.
Cooking with fresh, seasonal products is the foundation of my cuisine — and the essence of my authentic Tuscan recipes.
📖 Easy-to-Follow Recipes
All my recipes are presented in a clear, simple way so you can
easily recreate them for family and friends when you return home — bringing a little taste of Tuscany back with you.

My menu includes:

📍 Where & When
At Your Holiday Home in Tuscany
I teach all over Tuscany, especially in Siena and the Chianti countryside.
For classes at your place, you’ll need:
-
A clean kitchen with a 4-burner stove & oven
-
Plates, glasses, dishes & cutlery
If anything is missing, I can bring what’s needed.
I usually arrive 3–4 hours before dinner to prepare everything together. Dinner is generally served around 8 PM, but I can adapt to your schedule.
In My Home Kitchen in Siena
Welcome to my kitchen! We’ll cook together, and afterwards, enjoy the meal on my veranda with a stunning view of the Chianti hills.
Classes are usually at lunchtime (10.30 AM – 2.30 PM), but I can also arrange an early dinner experience (4 PM – 8 PM).
