Viterbo With your hands

Scheduled cookery courses in Viterbo: fresh pasta, sourdough, Lazio classics

Viterbo

The same school, in Italian, with a calendar you can read: fresh pasta, lombrichelli, sourdough, spoon desserts, a Lazio menu. You pick a date and take a place on it.

How the day goes

  1. Look down the calendar and find the course you want, with its date on it.
  2. A deposit holds the place; the rest is settled when you turn up.
  3. In the kitchen with everyone else booked on it, hands in the dough.
  4. You leave able to make the thing again at home.

These run in Italian — if you want the lesson in English, the school teaches that one separately.
