This cooking workshop celebrates the Tuscan cuisine, loved worldwide because of its simple and yet amazing dishes.
We prepare two types of crostini (green ones with a tangy herbal pesto and red ones with a spicy tomato and beans cream). The main dish is wonderful crespelle alla fiorentina (thin hand-made cannelloni stuffed with ricotta and spinach in tomato sauce). The other dishes are a rich panzanella salad with lots of fresh vegetables and the famous “cinque e cinque” from Livorno (thin pancakes with spicy marinated aubergines). And then our desserts: two of the most iconic cookies, cantuccini (crunchy cookies from Prato) and ricciarelli (soft and sweet almond cookies from Siena). Plus the delicious zuccotto, a creamy semifreddo cake made with cream, cocoa and hazelnuts, served with a glass of Vin Santo (Tuscan dessert wine).
