We will treat ingredients with special flavors that have been passed down for years in my family.
We will have lunch or dinner together depending on the experience chosen.
We will devote moments to the stories and sayings of my city.
In the cooking class, we will knead and make Orecchiette and Beef and Pork Meatballs together!
Orecchiette are one of the most popular dishes of my Salento region. They are made with Senatore Cappelli semolina flour and seasoned with sauce, turnips and much more.re.
We will then start making the dough for the Beef and Pork Meatballs.
Next, we will chop the vegetables and prepare the sudo where we will cook the meatballs.

Maurizio
Hello, my name is Maurizio and I will be your personal chef.
From an early age, I developed a passion for cooking thanks to my mother and grandmother.
local
I have always been inspired by local Italian ingredients and put my personal touch on individual dishes to create a unique dining experience to be proud of.
In addition, the restaurants I have worked for have offered me the opportunity to bring traditional Apulian recipes to their tables.
I am happy to be able to teach you how to get your hands in the dough to prepare our famous orecchiette, other types of fresh pasta and other traditional goodness together, using fresh, local and seasonal ingredients to prepare a menu tailored for cooking classes.
The classes are informal and aim to include a large component of fun as well as learning.
I will teach you all the culinary secrets of Puglia and you will be able to prepare your own traditional Italian meal once you return home.
If you have specific needs or need inspiration, please contact me for more details.
