Cook at Seliano
Sample Dishes

 

The following are just a small sample of dishes you will learn to prepare in the three half-day, hands-on cooking classes. Dishes will vary each season, as obviously the produce does. In general, there is an emphasis on the products of the immediate agricultural area and the produce of the Tenuta Seliano itself: mozzarella di bufala, ricotta, and other cheeses and dairy products, fruits and vegetables, goat, buffalo meat, and, naturally, pasta. During the three half-day sessions, every individual will have an opportunity to take a turn at deep frying, grilling, making tomato sauce and ragu, making their own liqueur to take home, preparing and cooking vegetables, pasta dishes, and desserts.
