PRIVATE Gluten-Free Pasta Class at a 12th-Century Tuscan Home

Set in a beautifully preserved 12th-century farmhouse just outside Florence, this experience offers a rare opportunity to learn traditional Italian cooking with a gluten-free focus—without sacrificing flavor or authenticity. Guided by Maria, a retired architect and passionate cook, you’ll discover her perfected recipes and family traditions while enjoying her warm, welcoming hospitality. Using fresh, seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, you’ll prepare and share a meal that reflects true Tuscan farm-to-table living. For an even richer experience, you can begin with an optional guided tour of Florence’s vibrant San Lorenzo Market, where Maria introduces you to her favorite vendors and seasonal specialties before heading to her countryside home. More than just a cooking class, this is an immersive cultural journey where you’ll connect with Maria’s family, savor authentic flavors, and experience Italian life like a local.
