Top Ostuni Pasta Making Classes

Every region of Italy has its own distinctive style of pasta. Make like a local and learn how to craft “orrechiette”—Apulia’s signature pasta that’s shaped like little ears—on this interactive course at a “masseria”, a fortified farmhouse that’s typical of the region. Enjoy a tasting of bread, olive oil, burrata, and cured meat, feast on your “orrechiette” with tomato sauce, and finish with an authentic sweet almond cookie.

This experience takes place in a beautiful private countryside villa and combines authentic Apulian cooking, traditional hospitality, and a refined dining atmosphere. Unlike standard cooking classes, guests will prepare at least 3 traditional pasta types by hand and enjoy a full traditional dinner with local wine in a more intimate and premium setting designed to offer a deeper connection with the real Puglia.

With a local Nonna, you will learn how to prepare fresh handmade orecchiette pasta, following authentic Apulian tradition. After the cooking experience, you will discover the vibrant world of Pizzica, learning the basic steps of this traditional dance and experiencing the joy and energy that every Apulian feels when this incredible music begins to play. At the end of the experience, you will enjoy the freshly made orecchiette accompanied by a glass of local wine.

A few steps from the center of Ostuni, in what were once the medieval gardens of the city, immerse yourself in an experience of authentic Apulian cuisine. You can choose between the preparation of orecchiette or whether to follow the chef from picking vegetables to cooking in a wood oven.All with a view between the historic center of Ostuni and the sea.
