Sunset cooking class in Rome's Jewish Ghetto district

Take an authentic Roman-style pasta cooking show. Ease off from visiting the city by meeting local people and learning how to make a typical Roman dinner menu from scratch.

Meet your host and enjoy breathtaking views of the stratification of Rome over centuries and a number of shops as well as very good restaurants selling Jewish-Roman food. Access the restaurant and meet your Chef, who will be ready to share his recipes and reveal his tricks. This is a hands-on class, but you can also relax, watch the chef at work, while you sip a glass of wine.

You will learn how to make homemade pasta from scratch, prepare seasonal vegetables to fry, and taste desserts. Seasonal food is a must in Rome. In a winter class, you’ll have the opportunity to learn how to peel artichokes and cook these carciofi alla giudia in the Jewish style, one of the highlights of Roman cuisine. In a typical summer class, you’ll learn how to prepare zucchini flowers or other amazingly fresh vegetables that are in season during warmer months to make the original “fritto romano”. For dessert, taste the amazing torta di ricotta e visciola, a famous ricotta cheesecake with sour cherries made using simple and delicious ingredients.
