\"\"Cooking courses<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When eating the delicious dishes of the Maremma is not enough, you should take part in a cooking class.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Like every region of Tuscany, Maremma is dotted with cooking schools. <\/span>Most are run by local chefs and housewives who are passionate about their food, the food their ancestors have been cooking for centuries.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These schools are designed specifically for tourists, so they are all in English, and represent an opportunity for any intrepid traveler to get their hands dirty and truly experience Maremma food beyond what is served to them on a beautiful white plate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Depending on the class, you might make from scratch pappardelle alla lepre (pappardelle with unctuous hare sauce), boar alla cacciatora con polenta (boar hunter style with polenta), acquacotta (a delicious vegetable soup), or any other incredible soup dishes that define this region.<\/span><\/p>\n

But it’s not just about cooking great food. <\/span>When you take one of these courses, you learn the secrets of Italian cuisine and usually get a good dose of the rich traditions of the families you are learning from along with them. <\/span>Most courses will also take you shopping before settling into a beautiful provincial kitchen, so you’ll know where to shop to recreate your experience.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Classes range from two-hour crash courses to full weekend immersions with trips to local markets to purchase fresh produce.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some agriturismos even organize cooking classes on site, otherwise they will be more than happy to tell you where you can go.<\/span><\/p>\n
