Join These Virtual Tuscan Cooking Classes Online

With a lot of our holiday rentals in Tuscany, there are special add-ons that the owners of our villas can offer to further enhance and to enrich your trip such as tours of vineyards, having private chefs sent to prepare dinner in the villa for you, and cookery lessons exploring the best of local Tuscan cuisine. For many, these cookery lessons, in particular, are a very special highlight of their whole holiday in Tuscany that helps them learn more about, and learn to better appreciate, Tuscan cuisine and learn how to prepare delicious and authentic local dishes that they can then go and reproduce at home.

But just because so many of us are stuck at home at the moment, and this is not an option in person for the time being, it does not mean that we have to miss out! We have found a way to bring the experience of learning to prepare excellent local dishes from Tuscany with an experienced Tuscan cook to you at home! Have an authentic Tuscan cookery class virtually by checking out this series of videos from Irene, a villa-owner based in Valdarno in Tuscany. Irene has carefully designed a series of virtual cooking classes that she streams live, allowing us all to have our very own Tuscan cuisine experience from the comfort and safety of our own homes!
Irene has adapted to the current global situation and has been streaming her wonderful cooking classes for several weeks now, in which she teaches you how to prepare beloved Tuscan and Italian dishes online, as she normally does for guests in her villas. In fact, the guests that can be seen in her live streams are former renters who are back for more cooking lessons with Irene and those who had trips planned in the coming weeks and months that had to be postponed, as well as friends, complete strangers who have never met Irene before, and more.

These special virtual cooking classes are free, can be adapted to any time zone, and are open to absolutely everyone who has an internet-enabled device, an internet connection, and an interest in simple recipes, simple ingredients, and home cooking, so you, too, can join in right now! Do so by simply watching the videos of these livestreams that Irene publishes to her YouTube channel after they have aired and by subscribing here to join in on one of the next, upcoming classes when they first go live. Enjoy the sense of community and the shared love of Italian food and learn how to prepare dishes such as Carbonara, Gnocchi, Gnudi, Pici with Sugo Finto, Crespelle alla Fiorentina, and much more to come! This is a perfect way to bring a little bit of Tuscany to you and into the safety of your own home. Switch things up and add a little bit of variety to your mealtimes with these fun virtual sessions until we can all get back to chowing down in Tuscany once more. Head to Irene's channel and discover a whole new world of Tuscan home cooking! Check out the video below, for example, in which Irene teaches us all how to make a classic Italian Tiramisù and one of her most famous dishes, a local delight called Maiale in Crosta, that she renamed "porkfish" in her family's own take on the dish.
