What you'll do
The protagonist is the pasta! after a small welcome buffet, made the introductions, put on an apron and start cooking.
let's start with the dessert because it needs to rest and will be ready later, then we introduce the different types of flour and pasta shapes used in northern and southern Italy.
captured the attention of the guests we start collaborate in the success of the dinner, everyone is responsible for the dough rather than the seasoning.
At this point a culinary trans begins that will end only when we go to cook pasta, the level of involvement that a ball of pasta can give in your hands is something that still fascinates me a lot today.
At the end we go to the table to enjoy a nice plate of pasta with our new friends, who for one evening were like family.

Where you'll be
my kitchen is located in Certaldo alto, a medieval village that from the top of the hill overlooks the valley and nearby San Gimignano.
the view is breathtaking and gives great peace.
originally the place was a stable for the horses of visitors, in fact it is located next to the main entrance of the village, today it is the kitchen of my dreams. intimate and welcoming.
