Step into a welcoming local home in Parma and discover the culinary traditions that have made Emilia-Romagna one of Italy’s most celebrated food regions.
Your experience begins with a traditional aperitivo featuring Parmigiano Reggiano, local Salame di Felino, seasonal bruschette, and a glass of refreshing Malvasia, a typical white wine from the area. Learn about the history of Parmigiano Reggiano, the different ageing processes, and why this iconic cheese is considered one of the world’s finest products.
Then roll up your sleeves and join a hands-on cooking class focused on authentic homemade pasta. Depending on the menu of the day, you will learn how to prepare traditional specialities such as tortelli d’erbetta, potato tortelli, or fresh tagliatelle with strolghino ragù, using techniques passed down through generations.
During the meal, enjoy your handmade dishes paired with a glass of local Lambrusco, the famous sparkling red wine of Emilia-Romagna.
To finish on a sweet note, indulge in homemade tiramisù or artisanal gelato, followed by a tasting of traditional local liqueurs such as Nocino or Bargnolino.
More than a simple cooking class, this is an authentic Parma home dining experience where food, wine, storytelling, and Italian hospitality come together around the table.
