What to expect

Ciao and cheers: Prosecco and aperitivo reception

Indulge in carefully selected cured meats and cheeses and sip on Prosecco before you don an apron and get deep into some dough-making . You’ll meet your tutors, two local Roman chefs, who’ll show you around the contemporary cooking school in Rome’s Trastevere neighbourhood, home of the aperitivo.

The History Behind the Dough

Pasta has been part of Roman cooking since antiquity, when the earliest versions were just flour and water. Egg-based dough and bronze-cut shapes came later, and semolina flour, still a staple across Lazio today, gives Roman pasta its signature bite. Your chef will explain the reasoning behind local habits, why Romans reach for pecorino over parmigiano, and how to tell dough is ready by touch instead of a timer. You'll leave with technique you can actually use at home, not just a recipe card.
