Your experience

    In the heart of Valpantena, among the Veronese hills, lies one of the oldest olive mills in Verona: the Salvagno family olive mill. Here will begin our journey that will take us to discover the properties of the olive tree, an ancient and generous tree. We will visit the olive grove and discover the various stages of processing, up to bottling. At the end of the visit we will be able to taste the oil, discovering all its characteristics. A glass of wine will accompany the tasting.

    Once back home we will cook together a pasta dish or risotto, using the olive oil. To end on a sweet note, a slice of doughnut, Grandma's, with olive oil is a must! Visiting hours are Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

    Such a heart warming, once in a lifetime experience Michela gave to our family, She welcomed us into her beautiful home with wine and local cheeses and homemade brushcetta. She showed us pasta making magic! It was so much fun, we enjoyed learning from a true local, professional chef. She taught us via hands on the meticulous technique of colored pasta, roasted tomatoes, sauce, as well as a wonderful a dessert. Not only did we learn, we enjoyed eating the fabulous dinner we cooked including Michela's "family cake!" AND we made a friend that we will remain in contact with.

    We had a great experience cooking with Michela in her home. I would highly recommend her class.

    Michela è stata molto gentile e veramente simpatica. Le cose che cucina e che ti racconta creano davvero una bella serata. Vi consiglio caldamente di provare questa esperienza di cucinare con Michela e assaggiare le prelibatezze che offre!

    Cucinare è un atto d'amore, cucinare piatti tipici della tradizione è conservare e tramandare un tesoro prezioso! Grazie Michela perché dai la possibilità non solo a chi non conosce la nostra cucina, ma anche a chi è veronese da sempre di scoprire ricette meno conosciute e di non perderle nei vecchi ricettari delle nonne! Con la tua pazienza e gentilezza ti impegni per coinvolgere gli ospiti nella preparazione dei piatti stando attenta alle esigenze di tutti. Se gustare il cibo in compagnia attorno alla stessa tavola è uno dei momenti più belli della giornata, mettere le mani in pasta e condire ogni portata con chiacchiere e risate fa prendere all'esperienza tutto un altro sapore. Vivere un addio al nubilato tra farina, uova, mestoli e mattarelli può sembrare piuttosto insolito e fuori dal comune, ma possiamo assicurare che è stata una delle esperienze più coinvolgenti mai provate prima. Una sorpresa inaspettata e un ricordo splendido che ci rimarrà sempre nel cuore.

    Michela
    Cesarina from 2021Location: Verona    Languages: English, French, Italian
    Michela is from Verona, she has always lived in Verona, a city of art and love. Her apartment is a few steps from Piazza Brà, in the city center. The hills with its vineyards, Lake Garda with centuries-old olive trees and the Lessini mountains surround the monuments of a city with magical views. Her passion for cooking is a family legacy. Grandmother Laura and mother Bibi involved grandchildren and children in the preparation of long and short fresh pasta, lasagna, tortellini and tortelli, meat main courses with side dishes and desserts. "In the kitchen I try to convey the value of simplicity, but at the same time I am always ready to experiment with new dishes, mainly using the typical products of the Verona area."
