We begin with a traditional Italian aperitif, sharing homemade appetizers and prosecco while everyone gets to know each other.
Then each guest prepares their own fresh pasta by hand using local ingredients and family recipes.

In a welcoming Salento family home near Lecce, you’ll experience an authentic Apulian cooking class and a relaxing dinner full of southern Italian charm. Located in Corigliano d’Otranto, just 15 minutes from Lecce, this hands-on pasta making class takes place in a cozy countryside Villa surrounded by olive trees. You’ll start with a small aperitif by the pool or near the fireplace, depending on the season. Then, guided by Enza and her family, you’ll learn to make traditional orecchiette and maccheroncini from scratch, using time-honored recipes passed down through generations. Dinner follows with local wine and typical dishes from Puglia, served in a warm, family atmosphere, on the veranda in summer or by the fire in winter.

Enza and Antonio are fantastic hosts. We had a great time and recommend this to anyone looking to have fun and learn more about Italy and the wonderful people who live here. A few more details: We were a group of 6 Americans - three married couples in our 60s. The evening began with some local treats and then moved to Enza's master class in making orechiette and maccheroni, followed by a sweet dessert and some other pleasant surprises. We had a fantastic evening with Enza, Antonio and their family. The food was tasty and the conversation was lively. Antonio is a wonderful host. Enza is also a great hostess and an excellent teacher - you will be very pleased to find out how quickly you learn the techniques of making pasta. Their daughters and friend Josh did a great job supporting Antonio and Enza in providing us with a very entertaining evening. All in all, we would recommend this tour highly.

What a fantastic experience!! This was one of the highlights of my family's trip. Enza, Antonio and their two daughters(and of course Jambo, their sweet yellow lab!!) were such a beautiful and kind family! From the moment we arrived with the warm welcomes to the hugs goodbye, we felt so at home! The appetizer spread was incredible. The cooking class itself was so fun and entertaining, and the dinner afterwards was just fantastic! I highly recommend this excursion for a truly memorable experience!! Thank you Enza and Antonio for such an amazing experience!!

This was a highlight of our trip. My wife and I absolutely loved the experience. Enza and Antonio, along with their daughters Micaela (sp?) and Christina and family friend Josh all went above and beyond to make it a special evening. You start the evening with a gathering in their back yard getting to know other guests and the hosts, all while enjoying delicious local and homemade appetizers. My favorite was an incredible slaw made from grilled eggplant. I’m not an eggplant fan, but this was amazing. Then we moved to the back deck to make orecchiete and macaroni. An absolute blast - even for a complete novice like me. The coup de grace was dinner - the pasta we made collectively with Enza’s delicious sauces. And excellent local wines. I could go on and on, but this is a can’t miss event. Grazie, Enza and Antonio!

Absolutely fantastic cooking class with a wonderful Italian family who made us feel incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived. The whole experience was fun, relaxed, and really informative, with plenty of tips and stories along the way that made it truly authentic. The food we prepared with Enza’s instructions was absolutely delicious, and it was so special learning traditional recipes in such a warm and friendly environment. A lovely touch was that Enza sent us all of the recipes afterwards so we can recreate the dishes at home and relive the experience. This is an absolute must-do when visiting Puglia and was without doubt one of the highlights of our holiday. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a genuine and memorable Italian experience!

From the moment my daughter and I arrived at Cooking Love, we were greeted warmly by the family of five at their beautiful home. They had a beautiful charcuterie board prepared with homemade dips and homegrown vegetables, with glasses of Prosecco for everyone. We gathered on their outside deck to prepare our pasta, which was guided expertly by Enza and her daughters. The wine flowed, as well as the conversation, among the 12 guests, and the finished product was spectacular. The dinner ended with a homemade pie. I highly, highly recommend that you book an evening at Cooking Love if you are in the Lecce region.

The pasta class was nothing short of amazing. From Enza and Antonio, the welcoming and gracious hosts, to the appetizers and wine by the pool, to the pasta making class, to enjoying the meal we made together with our group, to the dessert , wine and lemoncello after dinner, to the music shared around the table, eveyrthing was perfect. This was our second time taking the pasta class and we will definitely be back again. You will love the entire evening, guaranteed.

The favorite thing we did on our week and a half in Puglia. Enza and her family truly open up their home to you. The wine, champagne, and laughs flow and they are patient with everyone regardless of past cooking experience. The location is about 25 mins outside of downtown Lecce in case that's an issue
