Things to do in Emilia-Romagna, Italy: The Best Cooking Classes

Bluone is a family company based in Bologna. Since 1995 we have organized food and wine tours in Italy: We will take and guide you personally to Emilia Romagna, Umbria, Le Marche, Piemonte, Prosecco area, Puglia, Friuli-Venezia Giulia to taste the best local wines and the mouthwatering delicatessen in each region.

Italian cooking lessons in an Italian home! We are happy to teach you how to prepare authentic Italian dishes and although we are friendly, we are also quite serious about teaching you the right way to make these dishes and ensuring that you will be able to replicate these back home. Your success back home is our objective. We are professional and experienced but not stuffy or arrogant. Our specialty is pasta making, the old fashioned way; the way the Italian grandma's still make it (with a wooden rolling pin and board)! You will make several pasta shapes and sauces and won't miss anything! We also teach how to cook with local specialties like Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, Traditional Balsamic Vinegar, Bologna Mortadella and Prosciutto from Parma. We cook with fresh seasonal produce, meats, and seafood. Lessons are personalized and held in small groups (1-3, up to 6 if related or close friends) to assure plenty of one-on-one attention. Our hands-on cooking lessons are held in a home setting. No surcharge for single participants or private lessons. Discounts for children. Lessons available in English, Spanish or Italian.

Latest Update: I am open for classes and market tours in Bologna as of August 2020! I have been running classes since 1999 and I plan to continue. I have always only taken very small groups and given the Covid -19 crisis, I guarantee you will only shop and cook with your family or travelling companions, not with people you don't know. For market tours and market shopping, we'll avoid narrow and crowded streets and still shop at some top purveyors for Bologna's renowned gastronomic products and its superb quality fresh produce. In my well-ventilated open space apartment, social distancing is easy and I will have ample supplies of medical masks and sanitising gels on hand for you. If you can't get (back) to beautiful Bologna just yet, then as you'll see from my Tripadvisor reviews, I am offering on line classes, both group demo classes and private classes tailored to your requests. Email me to enquire about the possibilities, I'll be waiting to hear from you. Carmelita
