New3 hFree cancellationBy Cesarine: Cooking Class
About this activity
Join a unique cooking class in Perugia and experience the flavors of Umbrian cuisine!
Start with brustengo, a simple yet delicious appetizer made from water, flour, and salt, served with local cured meats. Then, dive into preparing traditional Umbrian first courses, such as tagliatelle, eggless pici, potato gnocchi, or ravioli, all seasoned with truffle, fresh tomato, or meat sauce. To finish, create a perfect dessert like zuppa inglese or a jam-filled crostata.
Throughout the class, you’ll discover the secrets of authentic Umbrian cooking and the region’s best-kept culinary traditions. Once everything is ready, enjoy a delicious meal with the dishes you’ve prepared.
