The Foundations of Italian Cuisine

Nella Cucina di Base

A year of Italy's most beloved dishes,
distilled into one beautiful curriculum

Our Basic course gathers the recipes most cherished by our students over ten years into a single year's curriculum. As the menu is fixed through the seasons, you are free to join in whichever month features the dishes you long to master.

About Lesson

The Lesson Experience

01

Welcome Drink

Your lesson opens with a welcome drink on the sofa, as we walk you through the month's menu.

02

Demonstration

We move to the kitchen, where dishes are demonstrated before your eyes — and you are warmly invited to join in the cooking whenever you wish.

03

Dining

Once the finishing touches are complete, take your seat — antipasto through dolce is served in sequence, paired with Italian wines chosen for the month's menu.

04

Caffè

After the meal, choose from coffee, cappuccino, tea, espresso or herbal tea.

If you have allergies or ingredients you would rather avoid, let us know in advance and we will gladly substitute.
