Cooking class: stone mill and ancient wheats

Discover the rich history and culture of wheat and grains in Tuscany with us. From the age-old question of whether wheat is a seed or a fruit, to the height of the wheat plant and its significance, there’s so much to explore.

Have you heard of ancient grains and their rumored lower gluten content?

When in Tuscany, have you ever wondered about the pasta in stores, and if it’s precooked and made with Canadian grains?

Did you know that real flour can contain oil?

The art of making pasta, such as the thick and hearty Tuscany noodle known as pici, is a playful one, with some even using music to create the perfect spaghetti.

And have you heard the tantalizing story behind Tuscany dishes such as tortellini and their hot and steamy history?

Indulge in our Tuscany recipe collection and join us on this journey through the world of wheat and grains. Be sure to check out our Cook Book on Amazon

We had a wonderful time with our host, Mauro. My kids really enjoyed truffle hunting with Ayesha (the hunting dog), the in-depth tour of the small batch traditionally made sweet wine and the incredible four course meal with wine pairing. Mauro is impressively knowledgeable about truffles, providing in-depth detail about the symbiotic relationship between truffles and trees and his process for growing and harvesting. His cooking skills were equally impressive! We had dishes and ingredient pairings that were unique. We ate at a few Michelin-guided restaurants in the region but I can honestly say that this meal stood out amongst all others for its creativity and presentation. It is clear that he has a passion for Agriculture, wine and food. I highly recommend this experience to everyone. Gratzi Mauro (and Ayesha)!

What an amazing experience! Two families went to this quaint Agriturismo in Tuscany based on a recommendation by a frequent traveler to Italy. Mauro and Marta are the owners of the Agrituriamo and are very welcoming. They easily share their passion for food and wine in and open and engaging way. We did the class on wheat with pasta making. Mauro did an excellent job explaining how the wheat is harvested and processed and the difference in flour making. Then he showed us the vineyards and explained how the wine was made. We were able to try all their wines that they produce in small batches and they were excellent. We then made pasta which was very engaging for all ages. While we did this Marta started cooking our pasta with her special recipes. It was all so delicious and everything is locally sourced. If you have the opportunity this is a must do and will appeal to all ages! They were also very accommodating and nothing felt rushed or too touristy. This was one of our most favorite activities on our trip.

Wonderful experience and intimate look at a family who is self-sufficient and keeping many traditions alive. Aiesha was 4/4 in her truffle finding and the farm to table lunch and conversation were spectacular!

이번 여행 중 가장 좋았던 숙소였습니다! 호스트 분들 너무 친절하게 대해주셨고 집도 크고 가족들과 쉬고 갈 수 있는 최고의 숙소였어요. 와이너리 투어와 저녁도 같이 신청해서 다녀왔는데 이번 여행 중 가장 맛있는 한끼였습니다. 다음에 또 쉬러 가고싶어요! 와인 더 안 사온게 후회되네요.😂 It was the best accommodation of our trip! The hosts, Marta and Mauro, were incredibly kind, and the house was spacious — a perfect place to relax with family. We also booked the winery tour and dinner together, and it was the most delicious meal of the entire trip. I’d love to go back again for another relaxing stay! I regret not bringing back more wine😂

We had a fantastic day at the farm. The owner personally walked us through the wine making process, wheat making process, truffle hunting with their adorable dog, followed by a pasta making class and an incredible meal under a vine-draped pergola. Our family couldn’t have asked for a better day and we could recommend this team more!
